    What type of exercise do you do? For how long?

    cardio stair stepper (20 min) & stationary bike (25 min).. and I smelled ammonia so guess i didn't eat enough carb according to this article or I wasn't properly hydrated or both.

    Honestly, I'm not convinced those are the only reasons. I have found that I end with this smell even when I am eating plenty of carbs and well hydrated after running. I noticed it most of all when I got back to running after a break.
