A member asked:
What is the reason of stingky gases and stool?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually diet: Culinary "aromatics", e.g. Onions, gaslc, leeks, cumin, curry can cause odors. Poorly or undigested carbohydrates, or fats can too (affects bacterial fermentation in gut). Black (not dark-black), or maroon, stinky stool can be from bleeding-call md immediately. Black stool from iron, peptobismol-check with md. Some digestive or pancreatic problems can do so too. Ongoing issue- see your doc.
