Perhaps he was tormented by flatulence as this author suggests:

I suppose it would take a sick man to do what he did.

Also, on Hitler's diet---I wouldn't have expected him to be a vegetarian, but apparently there is discussion of this question in some circles:

If you find trivial information on bile, sebum and such interesting then yeah, I think it's the best book on the topic without being overly technical.

Actually, I'm more interested in charismatic leaders and what makes them do what they do. Seems like most live in some denial of their bodies.

Perhaps. But if you have chronic flatulence, wouldn't YOU try to hide it?

I do already!
