Hello
i am suffering from a slight amount of
clear,
slimy discharge from the anus that has an
unpleasant seaweed/fishy smell that can
become quite powerful at times.
Does anyone have any advice for me?
Many thanks

I Need Some Help Posted: 10-17-04 09:08am
Hey, ive been searching the internet for
answers to this proble. Im only 17 and
this has just started to happen to me. I
get a fishy smell and everyone seems to
notice it. It gets worse when im nervous.
Need some help. Its really affecting my
social life.
Hi... Someone else also contacted me with
this problem too...
One thing we noticed is that we are both
avid consumers of
cheese and coffee
actually... I don't seem to suffer from
it at the moment...
So I can't experiment with dietary
changes...
I'm trying simple things... Like writing
down my eating & drnking habits and
then comparing these with the times the
smell is present.
Luckily mine is not strong enough for
anyone not 'very' intimate to notice.
I sure hope your problem gets solved.
Watch that diet!
Dave

Smell Posted: 11-03-04 01:13am
Dave and everyone else. Greetings.
This odor is very symptomatic of a rare
(or not so rare now) metabolic disorder
known as trimethylaminuria.
The foods we eat causes the odors.
Namely in: soy, lecithin, and choline.
Caffiene is also known to be a factor, but
not as much.
Soy can mainly be found in vegetable oils,
hence, your basic fried (fast) foods.
Dave, you mentioned cheese, and whaddya
know, choline is most rich in dairy and
fish products.
Lecithin is found in a lot of your sweets
like chocolates and twinkies and sh*t like
that. It is listed 99% of the time on
the back of the package in the list of
ingredients. All three almost usually
are. So check your
f$@%n labels. And avoid.
Oh yeah, water. Lots and lots of water.
It is a good weapon. Helps flush out
many of the toxins.
Aloe vera juice and chloryphyll (spelled
damn close to it) are good weapons.
Fruits, yes lots of fruits. Bananas and
most of all blueberries (cranberries,
too.) good stuff to have on your side in
this battle.
Yeah... That sounds like the concrete
information I was looking for.
Thanks for cleaning the lens!
Now I just habe to learn a l little
self-discipline and avoidance!!!

No problem, dave. Self-discipline
is the key. You're really gonna
need it. Now, you can, uh, have
your cake and eat it, too, just be careful
when.
Night times and weekends are prefarable if
you're going to indulge in those forbidden
foods. By this I mean, of course,
times you're not going to be around that
many people. Just moderate it when
you do, cuz' it can come back to haunt you
the next day.
Okay let's break it down for specifics.
You like your coffee. Fine.
Just try not to overdo it. I know
it sucks, especially in this
gotta-have-caffiene-work100hoursaweek-star
bucks world we live in. Okay, the
tip here is, if you're gonna use cream,
use the dairy-type creamer, not the powder
type. Most powder creamers contain
lecithin, one of the evil three.
Hence, you must avoid.
You may like a donut or pastry with your
coffee? Forget it. Donuts
contain soybean oil and whole eggs.
Oh yeah, eggs (the yolks spec.), along
with milk and fish, have the higest amount
of choline, so it should go without
saying...In addition...
If you like to have eggs and bacon before
your coffee and sweets...I'm sorry.
That has to go, too. (btw the dairy
creamer you're going to put in your coffee
is a small amount, so you're relatively
safe.)
let's to lunch now. Say you're on
the go, gotta have a bite to eat: skip
burger joints, pizza huts, and taco
bell-types. Places like subway are
your best bet. Now a couple of tips
about your new favorite eatery (subway):
one slice (or half slice) of cheese
instead of two.
No mayonaisse. It contains whole
eggs and soybean oil.
The only two "ingredient-safe" dressings
are the "sweet onion sauce" and the "red
wine vinagrette". The rest contain
soybean oil etc.
Side note: when looking at the list of
ingredients, the first ones listed contain
the bulk % of total ingredients. So
if soybean/vegetable oil is listed first
or second, stay away. Near the end
of the list, you might see "less the 2% of
the following: soy, etc." don't worry so
much about it then; you can sneak it in if
you must. Which leads us to...
Chips. If you're gonna get the
meal, the only chips you should get are
the baked doritos. Regular chips
are fried. Other baked chips
contain lecithin.
Drink iced tea if you can, or the fruit
juices. If not, then it helps if
your soda is of the clear type, not the
dark, caffeinated kind. These
aren't as bad as the foods, but it doesn't
help alleviate the symptoms either, if you
know what I mean.
Anyways, try to adhere to the above
dietary changes. I guarantee you'll
notice the changes.
Let me know how it goes soon.
Peace

Iced- tea is fine. Stay away from
the caffeinated green tea.
Regular green tea, from what I understand,
is alright. I'll post it if I
find it isn't, but I think it is, so
you're cool.
Cranberry juice is an excellent
de-toxifier.
You mentioned exercise: by all means, go
for it. Go for a run by yourself,
do some cardio, ride a bike. Get
out there and do it.
If you're worried about creating an odor
while working out (which, plausibly, will
only really happen by doing long cardio
sessions rather than weights) then do
these things by yourself. You
don't need a gym membership or be around
people to do it, which is the beauty of
it. Not to say that you will
smell all the time if you did do it.
Some days are better than others.
If you eat a good diet on the day you go
to the gym, you should be cool for a
couple of hours. (do your cardio
last lol )
i'd recommend getting a punching bag and
hanging it up in the garage. Great
cardio and an excellent stress reliever.
But, yes, exercise can help burn the
excess trimethyline in the system.

Look on the bright side, guys.
At least you'll be a lot healthier.
A healthy body helps keep a healthy mind,
if you know what I mean.
Hang in there. You'll be alright.

I almost forgot: organ meats must be
avoided, as well.
Kidney, liver, beef hearts, things like
that. Avoid hot links and hot dogs, as
they consist of these things. I can
tell you first-hand, they really aggravate
the condition.
Oh yeah, butter is basically vegetable
(oil) shortening. This, too, needs to
be avoided, if possible. There are
enough substitutes out there. Use
jelly on your toast, instead, etc.
Oatmeal is a great breakfast alternative.
Throw in some sugar and cinnamon and
you're set. Don't buy the flavored
kind. Get the regular oats and do the
rest yourself.
There are plenty of foods out there for us
to eat. We just have to know which
ones.
I'll keep posting...

Good Over the Counter Remedies Posted: 05-31-07 00:14am
Radio Hosts Opie and Anthony recently made
fun of the Virginia Tech. shooter saying
that he was a miserable nerd who probably
didn't know how to have normal
conversation with girls, had bad breath
and swamp axx. If it were so easy that
just bad people got it. Fact is, it
appears to come if the posterior has no
room to breath. Wearing polyester should
be avoided and if you have an office job
that keeps you typing at a desk for hours
on end, get up frequently to refresh
yourself as well as your never region.
Here are some inexpensive championship
remedies that can be acquired at the local
dollar store. Stay current on the most
refreshing, least strong body sprays, wet
wipes just like a baby's mother would
purchase, neutral or peroxide based is
better than baby powder types, and
inexpensive briefs that don't fit you too
snug. You can store these things in the
corner of a leather attachee' case and it
is your secret which no one should know.
When you go to stretch your legs, on that
3rd walk about 3 hours into your shift,
pick up your case and go to the private
latrine. Use the wet wipe, If needb
dispose of the inexpensive briefs, you'd
be surprise how much smell accumulates in
them, apply fresh briefs and spray the
brief with that body spritzer. Don't spray
the body spray directly to anus or skin as
they can be abrasive. A spray or two to
the neutral smelling briefs. Heck, you
could even have the briefs bounty fresh
from the washing and drying the night
before. Never wear gamrments that were not
dried in the dryer. Dampness will only add
to the probelms. Use the regimen on
particularly hott days or if you were
confined to a taxi seat or the day was
particularly stressful. After awhile you
may be able to get away with a less
strengent routine as your body will become
use to smelling fresh. Diet is a big
peace. You can look at your stools to get
an idea of ho your body is breaking down
food. Bad smells sometimes are accompanied
by a greenish swampy looking bowel
movement. This can influence what food you
take in.
