You should go on the candida diet....you will be able to smell yourself more after each day....or at least that is my current experience(been on it for about two weeks).....I think it's a lot more reliable than the lick test.....it smells to me like garbage or sewage and the odor is getting a lot stronger.....so hopefully it's a case of something that has to get worse before it gets better....the diet is hard at first but if you are determined you can do it, and there will also be times when you fall off, but even then you will still notice a difference in what you can smell....I think much of this is related to food allergies or maybe we have some type of deficient metabolism, which also affects our sinuses...which is why most of us can't smell it.....never realized how bad my sense of smell was until I cut out a lot of foods especially the ones I knew I had allergies to when I was younger.....just applied for health insurance, so I will be off to the doctor too. If you can bring up the allergies, Antibiotics and metabolism subject to your doctor that might help. Bloomfield huh....live right next door to it or rather one town away from Bloomfield.
