Does anyone else do really eggy farts?

[bellwood]

sometimes, I think especially before I need to go for a poo, I do farts that smell like bad scrambled eggs, the smell seems to linger around for at least 5-10 minutes, even if i have walked out of a room the smell still lingers on.

Is it just me or does anyone else have this issue?

i used to but i figured out it was an intolerance to gluten and dairy. now i avoid both, and use enzyme supplements. no more problems. if you experience discomfort beyond just smelly farts, try eliminating certain foods a week at a time to figure out what is causing it.

I used to too but then I stopped eating meat. Ocassionally one pops out. I used to be able to fart on will when I was a kid much to the amusement of my schoolmates.

However after a prticularly heavy weekend on the Persians my shit smells disgusting. And then some.

my god! you sound like a farting professional!

I never specifically thought about introducing various supplements to my diet to stop the lingering smells of my bottom.

This is a troll thread of course, but I'd just like to say at random for no reason that I have several relatives with gluten sensitivities. So, we can be like a Moz-Solo celiac support group, or something. Or I just couldn't think of something to say beyond the fact I just am very familiar with gluten allergies. One of my relatives has to avoid both gluten and dairy also, so I know how difficult it can be.

yeah i know this was a troll thread...but i like it when trolls post something thinking it was totally troll-like, when really it may make a very interesting discussion.

Yeah, my gluten intolerance isn't that hard-core. I still eat food with gluten, I just avoid it when i have a choice.

That is a great strategy.

I think you won't develop any worse of an allergy as long as you don't eat too much gluten (like you are now, which is good) and try to keep a balanced, nutritional diet with minimal amounts of processed food (which everyone should do anyway!). But I've known some people who start off with a mild sensitivity who don't cut back on the stuff enough and it gets a lot worse. Because there is a lot of cross-contamination and gluten is fond in a lot of foods people wouldn't normally suspect, you're probably ingesting more gluten than you think. So just bear in mind that while you are already avoiding gluten when you have a choice, you're still getting a lot of exposure to it that can be damaging. But the good news is there is a lot more awareness now and accomodations for it are getting much better. So in a few years it will probably be easy to just walk into a fast food place and ask for "a gluten-free meal" and not need to explain much of anything.

i live in new york city...everything here is labeled for people on whatever diet...healthy restaurants...tons of health stores. I eat very healthy and actually read tons on nutrition. But you're right, most people do not know.

I am very happy to hear how knowledgeable you are on food allergies and nutrition. It actually has made my day considering how heartbreaking it is seeing all these people who don't know anything about what's going in their body.
