1. Diet

Diet is one of the important reasons why stools become smelly. After the human body digests food, it remains in the intestines and is broken down by intestinal bacteria to produce volatile organic compounds such as acetic acid, propionic acid, ammonia, etc., and also release unpleasant odors such as hydrogen sulfide.

If you regularly eat too much spicy, greasy, high-protein and other foods that tend to produce odors, it is also easy to make your stools smelly, such as vegetables with strong odors such as onions, garlic, leeks, or meat products such as sausages and bacon.

2. Reflux intestinal problems

Intestinal problems are also responsible for smelly stools. Impaired digestion and absorption of the intestine or intestinal problems caused by other systemic diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal infection, etc., will lead to incomplete decomposition of stool and a more foul-smelling odor.

In addition, an imbalance in the microflora in the gut can also cause the stool to become smelly. The balance of intestinal flora in the human body is disrupted, and bad bacteria multiply and continuously release a large amount of gases and other metabolites, which are easy to form unpleasant odors.

3. Drug effects

Some medications can also affect the smell of the stool, such as antibiotics, certain digestive medications, etc. Antibiotics inhibit the beneficial bacteria in the gut, causing an imbalance in the gut flora and causing abnormally foul-smelling stools. Some digestive medications, such as imported health products with poor ingredients, may have an impact on the texture and smell of the stool.

4. Other factors

Other factors can also cause stool to become smelly. For example, poor metabolism in the human body, acid-base imbalance, chronic diseases, etc. When metabolism is impaired or the acid-base balance is imbalanced, waste products in the body cannot be excreted and remain in the intestines, and the smell becomes abnormal.

Chronic diseases affect the normal function of the body's immune system and can easily trigger intestinal infections and inflammation, resulting in smelly stools.
