11. Noxious bowel movement
Even though the bowel movement doesn’t smell good at all, if you notice that the odor is even worse than usual, it might be time for a check-up.
Moreover, there are also other symptoms that indicate you have a problem with your diet, such as bloody diarrhea, loose stools, or high-volume diarrhea.
In conformity with Daniel Freedberg, MD, assistant professor of medicine and epidemiology at Columbia University Medical Center, the way you eat has a high impact on your bowel movement.
This means that your diet plays an important role when it comes to the smell of your stool. For instance, people who have a colonic infection, or those who are lactose intolerant can experience even worse-smelling stools than usual.
