Never thought I would be discussing Urine.LOL

Asparagus and other foods. Asparagus is notorious for making urine smell like sulfur after you eat it. ... These chemicals leave the body through urine, causing the distinct sulfur smell. Eating large amounts of onions or garlic can also cause this odor.

What Causes Urine to Smell Like Sulfur and How Is This Treated?

Fistula- are abnormal connections between two parts within the body, such as between the intestines and the bladder. When this happens, bacteria from the intestines moves into the bladder. This may cause recurrent UTIs or bladder infections, resulting in urine with a sulfur-like scent. This odor can also occur without an infection.

For centuries people have noticed that asparagus causes their urine to emit the scent of asparagus. That scent is caused by asparagus acid. Many people claimed it didn’t effect them or anybody in their family - so it must be genetic.

It turns out just about everybody is affected that way by asparagus. Some more than others. Nutritionists actually did some studies and found out that some people who claim their urine does’t small just can’t smell it! When they published the study, the editor of the journal made a note at the end of the article: “Is nothing sacred?”
