New idea to have doctors be able to detect the odor - request a stress test to work up a sweat

  I had a post the other day with an idea of having some member of the medical community spend up to a week or two with a person so they can observe the odor, since it is likely intermittent in nature. I thought a bit more, and I have a new, and much easier idea, that was largely inspired by a reply to my post. The idea is to request a stress test. A stress test is when someone runs on a treadmill, and a doctor monitors their heart looking for any issues. This is usually done when someone complains of chest pains. This would be a simplified version, where the heart does not need to be monitored, and the whole point is for the person to work up a sweat so the doctor can actually detect the odor. I have talked before about how for most people, it is likely their sweat that smells bad. The correct medical term for this would be Bromhidrosis, not TMAU, as I have said in an earlier post about visiting a doctor about this. A stress test to work up a sweat should allow the doctor to...

Diet that solved my problem for 20+ years - Do you eat a lot of red meat? If so, this is important info

  DISCLAIMER:  I am not a doctor or medical professional of any kind, and nothing here is medical advice.  INTRODUCTION: This is a copy of the post I made on the Reddit TMAU subreddit about the diet that solved my TMAU problem over 20 years ago. I am concerned that people may not be paying enough attention to the parts about who this is diet is likely and not likely to work for, as people are desperate for solutions. This diet is all about minimizing animal products. The key to seeing if this diet may work for you is whether or not you have an extremely powerful positive response to eating beef.  This is what I have, and in this post I explain why I think this points to the abnormal processing of carnitine being the culprit. Red meat (and beef in particular) has massive amounts of carnitine in it. I experience very powerful euphoric feelings when I eat beef, and this is a key indicator that this diet may be worth trying. The diet will need to be followed for some...

What a correct hygiene routine looks like - everyone needs to start here!

  What A Correct Hygiene Routine Looks Like:   The first thing for EVERYONE who thinks they have TMAU to do is to confirm that there are no problems with their hygiene routine that they may not be aware of. Because TMAU is usually a devastating, lifelong situation, it is essential to definitively rule out all the reasonable alternatives before accepting that you really do have a TMAU like disorder. The main alternatives to TMAU are a mistaken belief that you have a malodor condition (‘Olfactory Reference Syndrome’, which I cover elsewhere) or a possible hygiene issue that you are not aware of. I am including a possible dental problem that you are not aware of in with the hygiene topic - and that must be ruled out as well. Even if it looks like you probably have TMAU, you MUST definitively rule out the alternatives rather than saying that ‘probably’ is good enough. The younger someone is, the more likely it is that a hygiene issue is the real explanation for the malodor s...
