This is another one that might surprise you. After all, we’re always told that eating vegetables is a good thing. And it is, except that some of the veggies that are the best for you can cause you to stink.

Foods like Brussels sprouts and broccoli contain smelly sulfur compounds that circulate in the blood stream. The odors are then released through our urine, breath, and sweat. The solution is to eat a wider variety of veggies that don’t contain as much stinky sulfur.
