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

Poll : Do those with Fecal Body Odor have garlic intolerance ?

Does garlic intolerance mean fecal body odor ?
Body Odor -garlic poll : see below
I have a suspicion that those with what is loosely termed 'Fecal Body Odor' may have problems in metabolizing sulfides, including sulfides in the diet. I suspect this is because FMO3 enzyme probably oxidizes a wide range of sulfides. Garlic has many sulfides and I do not tolerate it well. So I wonder if an 'intolerance' to garlic may be a common 'sign' of an FMO3 issue.

Of course this is only in the context of people who feel they have 'fecal body odor'. I am sure others have intolerance to garlic with nothing to do with metabolic malodor. I could be wrong. So the poll below is for anyone who feels they have a 'metabolic malodor', in particular 'fecal body odor'

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
