What Causes Strong Odoured Stools Immediately After Food Intake?

Hi, I m a 35 year old female with a negative medical history. For the last several months I have experienced the need to poop immediately after I eat. Often it has a strong ammonia smell. I don t have the best diet-eating a lot on the run. Should I be concerned?
