News & Views on Systemic Body Odor and Halitosis such as trimethylaminuria TMAU. If you have fecal odors or bowel odors it may be metabolic/systemic

Probiotic retained enema for Fecal Body Odor ?

probiotic infusion ?
I suspect metabolic 'Fecal Body Odor' is often a syndrome, based upon a genetic issue (in my opinion to do with FMO3 enzyme), but also has other factors that make up the syndrome. One of these factors might often be a certain type of 'gut dysbiosis'. Over the last 10 years or so the idea of 'fecal transplantation' has become 'discussed' among the communities with disorders such as Ulcerative Colitis and other bowel disorders. I think it may have a role in 'fecal body odor syndrome' but prefer the idea of a 'probiotic enema' rather than a fecal transplant. My wariness is because with a fecal transplant I don't know what you are getting (good, bad and ugly ?) So in the future I think there may be a role for probiotic infusions in disorders related to gut dysbiosis.

This paper seems to be looking for the right 'probiotic cocktail' mix for probiotic infusions, doing away with the need of a fecal donor.

So I will follow research into this with interest, though I do not know what to think of it currently.

FMO3 DNA testing
Update Aug 17 :
Genos is back with it's EXOME test

Note :
Exome/Genome testing may be better option than single gene testing.

See this post : link

Note : Genos Exome Testing.

Exome testing is almost the same price now as single gene testing. Also Genos is consumer friendly, which standard DNA labs are not.

So the blog offer to test solely for FMO3 is almost obsolete, and so no longer offered.


Does Genos fully sequence FMO3 gene ?

At the moment it is not clear, but hoped this will become clear over the next few months

Note : possible 'wild west' way of testing FMO3
Use an ancestry dna site and rummage through the raw data
