I think it is just part of getting older. When I was going to see my Dad in a nursing home the smell of urine where they had wet themselves was horrendous.

Let me be gross for a moment. I ate a lot of pernil during the Holidays; heavy on the garlic and a bunch of other spices. Every time I used the urinal at work I kept smelling pernil. Even asked the guys standing next to me if there was a cuchifrito nearby. Didn't occur to me it was my own urine.

Whatever you put into your body is going to have to come out somehow. And if the body isn't hydrated enough it's not going to flush out impurities as quickly as it should. I totally agree with Nancy: more water -- and a cleaner diet.

I used to accuse my boys constantly of not cleaning around the toilet after playing fireman. So I made them scrub Mommy Dearest style. It never occurred to me it was the vinegar I used to clean; plus not opening the window to air up the place. Bathroom always smelled like subway station at 149th St. & 3rd Ave. in the Bronx. To make a long story short, there's no vinegar around my house but my sons are still sore about being blamed for something they never did. "Too late for apologies Daddy-O."

My elderly mother has this very same problem. She wears "poise pads" because of leakage and it can get onto clothing and cause a smell. My mother takes many pills also and I often wonder if this is the cause and wonder if it may be her other end not getting wiped well enoph. My mother has dementia and she needs to be reminded of shower taking and changing her pad and clothes often. I liked the chlorophyll idea and am going to look into this. I know it's not the water issue for my mom as she takes duredics and has to pee often.
