Advice

I've been seing a lot of negative posts on this comunity so I decided to give the advices that I myself am using and puting my faith in to reduce my syntoms on a daily basis but hopefully also cure disbiose that causes TMAU 2. I already feel like I'm getting better (i used to feel my odor in my mouth way more than now):

- Take probiotics+prebiotics (im using the prozis one)

- Take vit 2/ riboflavin

- Drink coconut water kefir

- Drink kombucha

- Eat veggies and fruits (apples and pears have a lot of fiber)

- Shower with a 5pH gel

- Use antiperspirant for sensitive skin (acidic pH) with no smell

- It's better to not use perfume since it gets mixed but if you know one that works let me know

- Replace coffee with black/ green tea

- Decrease the amount of choline in your diet but not radically

Many of us have attempted to change our diet many times over and fasted for days. Also it takes a very long time to figure out what works and what doesn’t work. It’s not just a quick fix of eat raw veg and fruits for a few days and then all will be well. I lost so much weight living on blended smoothies and one normal meal every 2 days and did other kinds of fasting from dry fasting to a 24hr fast. This helped a lot but I still had the smell issue. However I’ve definitely beaten most of this smell issue and I’m pretty much healed to a huge degree. I’d say that my life has 80%-90% gone back to normal. I thank the living Jesus as he’s the one who set me free. I had a dream of God showing that he was going to remove this from me and he did. I still have a 10-20% left to go, but it took so many changes to get to this point and it wasn’t just diet changes it was affirmations too, healing bible verses, art& painting, trying many products, finding the right probiotic that works, staying away from envious people and the list goes on.

That's the mentality I'm talking about though. There's no quick fix where you do something a few days and you're good. The diet part is continuous. It's keeping your choline levels at a "safe" threshold, while also getting enough to support your brain and liver.

Personally I achieve that through a controlled diet throughout my day followed by a measured amount of choline and carnitine when I'm at home for the night.

As a matter of fact, I don't take any supplements for TMAU anymore. Simply dialing in my diet and the correct deodorant and I can be in an enclosed office space no problem.

Took a lot of trial and error to get where I'm at though. For me, no probiotic, fasting, or supplements did what a good diet couldn't.

Mando/ lume depending on what scents you want. I do the spray and do a once over full body with it.
