Hello,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. Such a strong ammoniacal smell can be due to halitosis(due to infections of the oral cavity or poor hygiene),smell from the sweat or smell due to nasal or sinus infections. Ammonia smell of the sweat could indicate liver or kidney disease.
Avoid taking heavy fatty meal and eat nutritious, healthy food. If the ammoniacal smell still persists then please get yourself evaluated for liver or kidney disorders.
Hope it helps. Regards.
