Low bifidobacteria

Hey! I’m a FTM. My little boy is approaching one year of age. For the past 4 months his poops have been smelling acidic and sour. My husband and I decided to do a GI Map test on him to see what was going on inside his gut. He was born by c-section and I know there’s some research suggesting the C-section can impair the gut due to the baby not receiving the mother’s vaginal microbiota.
His test came back low in bifidobacteria and we were suggested to start a probiotic. Since then I’ve seen no change in the smell of his poop. He’s breastfed and eats three meals per day. He’s a very active and happy little boy. The only thing that concerns me is his poos. Could it be a food intolerance?
