Smelly stools caused by unhealthy diet?



You are what you eat, and so is your stool!

Changes in your diet will cause changes in the smell (and texture) of your stool.

As a near vegetarian, my food is mainly low fat and non-fried. This near-vegetarian diet causes less odour in my stools.

A family member of mine with unhealthy diet has very smelly stools or very foul-smelling stools. Some people say that fat seem to cause smellier stools. So next time before you put any food into your mouth, you may want to check whether it is healthy!
