After getting the flu my stools are not smelly. why is this?

One theory.: I'm not sure. However, many people lose their appetite and just drink clear fluids or other liquids when they have the flu. Meat is one source of malodorous stool. If you have not been having much meat or dairy - this may be why your stools don't stink.
