    ammonia sweat

    recently my sweat has a ammonia smell to it. from what ive read its from too much protein. im eating 200 grams a day. i weigh 200 lbs. has anyone had any experience with this? what do i do?

    In my experience sweat smell is directly related to my bodies ability to excrete waste. I use a fiber supplement and drink a lot of water, it helps a lot. When on cycle I do get smells from the compounds im using, but they are not nearly as bothersome.

    I always heard the ammonia smell is from your body burning protein for fuel because of a lack of carbs.

    bump up your carbs - problem solved.....
    its not from eating too much protein - its from your body trying to use protein for fuel....
    A byproduct of this is ammonia - usually its converted to urea and you piss it out ....but if there is too much it comes out in your sweat...
