How do you handle odor control? I keep my diapers and plastic pants clean but my urine tends to have a strong odor. I don't notice as strong an odor when I'm wearing a disposable but there is still a noticeable odor. I've tried the Inner Mint pills but never noticed any difference. I use odorless powder as I don't wish to advertise with the smell of regular baby powder. Is there a product out there that helps to keep urine odor down to a minimum? Any suggestions appreciated.

There is an easy natural way to lessen the odor in your urine. It is called diet regulation. Cut down on the coffee, tea and sodas and drink more water and juices. Artificial flavorings / sweetners and carbonation in drinks will actually dehydrate you and make your urine dark colored and strong smelling. If you keep your body properly hydrated with water and other more natural beverages your urine will be more dilute and therefore smell less.

I take 1 Nullo tables 3 X a day (morning, noon, and before bed) along with alfalfa tables (2 in the morning, 2 at noon, and 2 at night before bed). In combination these over the counter meds work very good for me. I don't have any odor issues and I've been bladder incontinent for over 20 years and I'm also partially bowel incontinent. I can tell you a lot of funny stories about my incontinence, but one thing for sure, these odor control meds have save my dignity and kept me from embarassment more times than I can count.
