Hello
in the past there were times when I would have a BM and they would be thin, floating and have a particular odor (sorry for the graphic detail) - i was never able to tell if this is caused by gluten or something else.
Anyway, ive been taking some antibiotics which do not have gluten ingredients and ive noticed that my stools have had those characteristics. Do you know what else could cause this?
thanks
Jason

Not sure what else could cause it, but the antibiotics could be the cause. They are hard on the system - our family eats yogurt regularly when on them. If you can't eat yogurt, maybe try a probiotic?
