Really bad body odor

It sometimes smells like rotten eggs, stale onions or rotten meat and it comes and goes and the smell is in my nose and mouth and throat. Atleast that's where I thin it's coming from. I have been diagnosed with acid reflux disease and diabetes. The smell is driving me crazy! What is causing it? Any help would be appreciated. I have gone to my personal doctor, ENT and the dentist but none of them seem to know or even how to help me. I have tried fasting and cleansing but it always comes back. What specialist should I refer to? Thanks any help is appreciated.

For me it was a hormone imbalance.  I started using over the counter progesterone cream (comes in prescription strength as well).  According to the directions on the jar (I actually use less, about 1/2 reccomended).  For me the "onion B.O." went away almost immediately.  Talk to your doctor first to make sure it's OK for you.

hi, its definitely in the intestines, this disorder baffels everyone including the most experienced doctors, a gastroenterologist is the person to see, but i dont know whether they will help you. personally i would suggest you mix one tea spoon of bicarbonate baking soda in 375ml glass of tapwater and drink this every two days for a couple of weeks- seven glasses in fourteen days.
