What does healthy human poop look like?

I’ve heard poop that is in the shape of a comma or an “S” – anything with a bend in it – shows you have a healthy digestive system/colon. I’ve also heard it should be fairly thin and float, which I assume is due to good fiber intake. Anyone know why or if this is even true?

I have an unusual body odor, is there anything to cure this?

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:50:48 +0000

And yes i use deodarent, and Tag body spray, i’ve had this odor since around 6th/7th grade. Its not really noticable but my step sisters and my step mom notice it but i don’t know what to do to keep it away. Especialy when i work out the smell is even worse, and everyone else doesn’t smell as bad as i do. I’m 140 Lbs. 5′ 10″ and 15 years old. Any ideas or cures for this? And i use soap when i take a shower. Thanks!
My step mom is chinese and she cooks with lots of herbs and stuff, like onions and stuff. That could be it, and i do my own laundry.

Body Odor – Diagnosed

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:50:47 +0000

All people smell when they don’t bathe often enough. The interesting thing is that sweat doesn’t smell when it first reaches your skin rather the smell comes only after bacteria or fungi on the skin’s surface break down the fat in sweat to form chemicals that smell. Most sweat glands produce sweat that contains no fat, but the sweat glands around the breasts, genitals and armpits produce sweat that contains fat. Most people prevent body odor by washing these areas frequently to reduce the number of bacteria on the skin’s surface. However, sometimes this alone doesn’t work.

The vast majority of people can prevent body odor by:

1) Bathing frequently, sometimes more than once a day;

2) Changing underwear and socks daily, because underclothes hold all the dead sking and residue that bacteria love;

3) Using deodorants/anti perspirants that contain low levels of bacteria-killing metals such as aluminum, zinc or zirconium; and

4) Using powder under the armpits and groin to keep the skin dry, which prevents bacteria from growing.

If you do all of these things and still have an odor, something is wrong and you should consult a proper physician. The most common cause of unusual body odor is a skin infection. An ammonia odor is caused by infection with Helicobacter, the bacteria that causes stomach ulcers, or by eating too much protein if your liver can’t break it down fast enough. Ask your physician to draw a blood test for helicobacter. If it is positive, you can be cured with a normal course of antibiotics. If it is negative, you may need to eat less meat, fish, chicken and dairy products to give your liver time to break down the substances. When you take in more protein than your body can use immediately, your body strips ammonia from protein to make you smell like ammonia.

A fishy odor is caused by taking choline supplements, by a hereditary condition called trimethylaminuria that requires avoiding fish and other dietary sources of choline, or by a vaginal infection caused by a bacteria called Gardnerella. People who have damaged livers can also develop body odor that smells like fish. Damage to the liver can destroy the chemical that breaks down choline. When in doubt, check with you doctor!

admin — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 04:57:29 +0000

My dad has outrageously smelly feet, he has tried everything from rubbing alcohol to foot powder to creams, anything you can think of he has tried. (He has an office job, so he’s not outside getting sweaty everyday, he just has very smelly feet)

Does anyone have any home remedies or know of any product that would actually work?

Nothing he has tried seems to work! Please Help!
