He Stinks!

He Stinks!

My boyfriend has the WORST smelling, "almost toxic" farts and poops. We virtually eat the same foods and I almost never smell. I thought maybe he needs a colon cleanse? What should he do so that every time he passes gas, or has a bowel movement we don't have to run to the other room!!?

Probiotics I guess you could try with him *shrugs*... and colon clense like you said.  But probiotics...just go to a health food store and ask for some and start using it in both your diets (it won't hurt you)...

other than that I dunno hopefully I don't have that problem in the future yikes :S

If it's really that bad, I'd suggest you get him to a doctor and have some stool tests done. One of those tests should be for C. diff a nasty little bacteria that can cause a myriad of problems in the large intestine.

I know when my husband eats lots of red meat or things that contain a lot of protein he has the same problem. So maybe slow down on the meats and have him go green for a week to naturally cleanse his colon.
