to persistant odor

Try goldenseal to kill the bad bacteria then a high dose probiotic to replenish the good bacteria.
Drink lots of water with lemon.  
check ph balance, because you may be over acidic.  drink vegetable juice and lemon w/water.
golden seal shouldn't be taken long term.

Hello Elle~You may have a zinc deficiency, if this is the case, you will experience body odor, it seems to be one of the symptoms of being deficient in this mineral. It can be obtained at any health food store, and is not too expensive.

Goldenseal  is one of the most popular herbs on the market today. It was traditionally used by Native Americans to treat skin disorders, digestive problems, liver conditions, diarrhea, and eye irritations. Goldenseal became part of early colonial medical care as the European settlers learned of it from the Iroquois and other tribes.

Goldenseal is available in nutritional supplement form. It is also available as a cream or ointment to heal skin wounds.

Goldenseal herbal tincture can be used as a mouthwash or gargle for mouth sores and sore throats. A tea made of goldenseal can also be used for this purpose

Goldenseal is a bitter that stimulates the secretion and flow of bile, and can also be used as an expectorant. It also has strong activity against a variety of bacteria, yeast, and fungi, such as E. Coli and Candida.

Goldenseal is used for infections of the mucus membranes, including the mouth, sinuses, throat, the intestines, stomach, urinary tract and vagina.

Goldenseal is used for the following conditions:


•minor wound healing

•bladder infections

•fungal infections of the skin

•colds & flu

•sinus and chest congestion

I have suffered with odour coming from my anus for about 25 years now. It developed when I had my first full-time job and for some explained reason I began to have a phobia of breaking wind in public. When I am in a social situation or when people are standing or sitting behind me I become particularly anxious and I can feel that my anus strats to open sporadically. It's horrible because people around me start to sniff and some even make comments about being able to smell s**t.
When I am at home and relaxed I dont seem to suffer from it at all so I think it must be psychologically driven but I am too ashamed and embarrassed to seek professional help
