Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Diarrhea And Rotten-egg Belches After Eating Macadamia Nuts And Cashews?
Im 54 years old and have never had this problem,, when I eat peanuts, macadamia nuts almonds and cashews within 24 hours iw will get diareah, and when I burp it smells and taste like rotten eggs or worse. Its happened 3 times in the last 2 months. I listed the 4 nuts as I ate mixed nuts fro a can and different brands.
There is a possibility that your GIT (gastrointestinal tract) is not reacting well to these nuts and so it would be best if you could avoid them completely.
Along with this I would also like to shed some light on a condition called irritable bowel syndrome. I cannot really go into all the details and would like you to either read up further or write to me using our premium service in case you experience random episodes of diarrhea or constipation without a fever like you do when you eat the nuts.
Best wishes.
