An orally ingestible defecation deodarant reduces the production of
intestinal gas and the production of malodors accompanying defecation or
the emanation of intestinal gas, by absorbing malodor causing substances
from the gastrointestinal tract; prevents the occurence of constipation;
and adsorbs substances from the gastrointestinal tract that interfere
with the absorption of orally administered drugs, pharmaceuticals, and
other active ingredients from the gastrointestinal tract into the
bloodstream and/or body. The defecation deodorant contains at least one
adsorbent selected from a chelate compound, coconut vinegar, food fiber,
gelatin, polyphenol, and a plant extract, on the surface of activated
carbon.
