I’ve checked with a few people in the past on this and heard various things but no one really seems to know about it. Only the smell as far as inhaling, breathing routinely not outside on skin or anything. It’s as if someone spilled ammonia itself.

I can’t say I have experienced this, but it sounds like someone (your client or someone in the gym?) may have a urinary incontinence problem.

Hi Dawn,

Could the smell be coming from the clothing? That’s pretty odd. I have not experienced that but would like to hear from others. Something tells me there’s a cat involved!

I can’t say I have experienced anything like what you are prescribing either.

Dawn,They are not eating enough carbs. Remember that carbs protect protein from being broken down for fuel (gluconeogenesis).

Without enough carbs, protein is broken down and ammonia is formed in the process which can be smelled. Solution: cut back on the intensity of exercise (if they are working out intensly) and eat more carbs.

Hope that helps

I suggest they get a complete physical from their doctor.
