Smelly p**p is not random.

In functional medicine, we see this as a sign that digestion and gut balance may be off.

Common reasons:
• food not fully broken down
• gut bacteria imbalance
• slow digestion or constipation
• low stomach acid or enzymes
• fermentation in the gut

Research on the gut microbiome shows that shifts in bacterial balance can directly change how food is broken down, which impacts odor, gas, and stool quality.

Your body is not being “gross.”

It’s giving feedback.

And instead of guessing, you can actually test what’s going on.

A GI-MAP stool test looks at gut bacteria, digestion markers, parasites, and inflammation so we can see what’s really happening instead of assuming.

If this is something you’re dealing with, don’t ignore it.

Your gut is always communicating.
