Diet and BeanO: One cause for bad odors in your eliminations can be your diet - the foods you eat combine with the intestinal organisms (bacteria) to create bad odors. Probiotics can help regulate or recolonize your intestinal tract with "healthy bacteria". Another trick is to take alpha-galactosidase pills (for example, "beano"), which reduce the the amount and odor of gas that you pass.
