What Causes Body Odor Similar To The Food Ingested?

I smell like the food I eat. Is their something wrong with my body? It s extremely strong... S if I eat fast food it s mortifying. If I have a smoothie with fruits and vegetables, obviously it s okay. I ve seen doctors and got regular physicals with blood work and all my levels are normal. I have been this way for about 3 years now. He 2 physicals and bloodwork. I have changed my diet drinking smoothies using raw fruits and vegetables. It does help, but if I have meat or fast food.. It throws my balance off. I am now taking a smoothie which contains raw fruits vegetables (strawberries, pineapples, sweet basil, olive leaf, cinnamon bark, yucca, and Greek oregano) ^ I got these ingredients from a probiotic called Fungal Defense

Hi,

The given symptom could be due to hallucination or phobia of certain food but it may not be the disease condition.

Only certain food or fruits gives smell alike them it is the indication of some functional disorders and not the disease condition of any kind so try to come out of the stress and anxiety if you ever have it.
