SubscribeSomething Smells Fishy
Now imagine reeking ALL the time! And I'm not talking about body order. Imagine living your entire life ALWAYS stinking of dead fish! It can happen.
A 41-year-old woman from Australia has stunk of ROTTEN fish all her life. The stench oozes out of her sweat, breath and urine. And the offending odor CAN'T be covered up.
After seeing MANY doctors, being called a hypochondriac and prescribed something called "vaginal cauterization." She was FINALLY diagnosed with trimethylaminuria.
Also named fish malodor syndrome, trimethylaminuria is a RARE genetic disorder, with only 600 reported cases worldwide.
Trimethylaminuria PREVENTS the body from breaking down trimethylamine a fishy smelling substance found in meat, peas, eggs, soy beans and fish.
Avoiding these foods can help, but there is NO effective treatment for trimethylaminuria.
Maybe Aquaman has this too!
