I'm just curious what others feel they can eat and get no reaction from others. I'm not even certain completely what I can eat because I'm fearful to go out unless I have an empty stomach.

I too am curious about this. I am able to eat most fruits and a few vegetables without reactions. I don't seem to tolerate bananas, dates or raisins well. I think it has to do with the high sugar content in those fruits. With regard to vegetables I can only tolerate those with a high water content... think cucumbers, lettuce and celery.

Hi healinghappens and guest, jcc34 and I were just discussing in another post not only some foods to avoid, but also the importance of how to modify the seasoning and "flavor enducing" vegetables with lemon. Sometimes, it isn't only what we eat or don't eat as much as the sulfur-containing seasoning, sauces, and vegetables. Also, not everyone can eat the same foods, depending on their food-triggers based on the cause of their odor. Perhaps to give you an idea of what you could possibly be able to eat, it would be good if you describe the type of odor you experience and how it manifests itself in your body. Not everyone is the same. MarĂa

Hi Working on it, I think we're in the same boat. I seem to be able to have an occasional apple, a few grapes and only raw high water content veggies, too. This may have to be my diet so I can get on with work and living. It's just so hard to stick to. Just recently realized I can NOT have strawberries and natural yogurt.
Hi Maria, I agree with you about the use of lemon and sparse seasoning. I was just asking in general to see how varied our issues and diets are. I just find this flabbergasting that doctors don't know more about odor issues. I wonder if it is a newer medical issue due to all the environmental toxins/poor farming, animal raising methods??
I've also noticed that sometimes I can have something in a small quantity, but only once in a while.

Hi Healinghappens
The only thing I know affects my odour is sugar, there are plenty that don't agree with my digestion so I'd presume they could also affect the odour a bit but I don't notice anything drastic.

The foods that I believe don't give me an odor is oatmeal, white rice, bananas, bread(any type), strawberries, blueberries, dark cherries, cantaloupe, baked or rotisserie chicken, and grapefruit
The one's I'm not so sure about is brown rice, pineapple, apple, tortilla chips, beans, eggs, and potatoes

This totally fascinates me. I'm wondering if there is a dietician out there in the world who has dealt with a variety of odor issues because we do all seem to have such differing things we can eat. I had started reading a book by Dr. Gabriel Cousins, and part of his introduction had to do with the fact that each of our ways of digesting foods are as individual as our personalities.
