Most of HD 189733 b's atmosphere is hydrogen sulphide, which is also emitted during farts.

A faraway planet known for its dire weather also whiffs of rotten eggs, according to a new study.

Scientists studied the atmosphere of HD 189733 b, which has scorching temperatures and precipitation akin to raining glass, using data from the James Webb Space Telescope.

Hydrogen sulphide, which also exists on Jupiter, makes up most of HD 189733 b’s atmosphere, and emits a bit of a pong, according to researchers. The gas is also emitted during farts.

        Well that’d definitely work.

        If I could be bold enough to suggest an addition to your diet - try Jerusalem artichokes:

        which way soever they be dressed and eaten, they stir and cause a filthy loathsome stinking wind within the body, thereby causing the belly to be pained and tormented, and are a meat more fit for swine than men.

        I ate them once and the results were remarkable.
