I don't get it I changed my diet over 3 weeks now, I drink at least 3 letters of water a day,no junk food,no sugar except what's in cereal,I eat fruit, I eat vegetables, yogurt ,hardly any meat,I eat fish (salmon and tuna) but yet the smell is worse now,my breath is horrible but my body odor is bad also....what is wrong with me, do I have a deficiency or something?....any suggestions?

I shower atleast once a day and brush my teeth 2 or 3 times a day but the bad breath comes back 15 minutes after brushing.
 
Wholly moly, that's waaaay too much water!

Three liters is over a hundred oz's a day. You could have thrown off all your electrolytes.
 
What does it smell like? There is a genetic disordered called trimethylaminuria or TMAU for short. Basically, a person with this rare genetic disorder can release an odor from sweat or their breath that smells like fish.
 
I don't think i have trimethylaminuria I do notice I have white on my tongue and when I get constipated my acid reflux gets worse.My crotch area has a fish smell and when I used daily acne wash it went away but when I stop using it it comes back.I read somewhere it could be Candida but have been eating right and taking yogurt,probiotics supplements but it never really helped.

I'm at my wits end I went and did some tests but nothing came up,I don't think its my armpits because I can smell my deodorant but who knows.
 
Although we are not health care professionals and can't diagnose, I personally think gabia is giving you solid info to follow up on...

People often think that because they don't have "all" of the symptoms, or because they have symptoms "once in a while", they don't have the condition/disease/whatever. However, many symptoms from diseases, conditions, side effects, whatever come and go, over the course of days/weeks/years/decades.

People who find answers to their problems keep open minds and ask lots of questions...

I believe they use a 24 hour urine test, but I don't remember...I saw the program on tv, too.

Recently, someone else had a similar problem, and I believe it was a young man, like yourself. Have you done an advanced search of these boards to find out if there is anyone else with similar stories? There is much to be learned from the older posts.
