Ornithine 750 mg, 60 caps

Ornithine: Detoxification and regeneration in a single capsule

L-ornithine is an amino acid that plays a key role in the urea cycle and the metabolism of ammonia and urea synthesis in the body. Ammonia is produced with the consumption of essential proteins (through the breakdown of amino acids, purines and pyrimidines), converted to urea and then excreted in the urine. Ornithine deficiency adversely affects the urea cycle, so that the liver or kidneys may be subjected to greater strain.

Ornithine plays a key role in detoxification. Too high a level of ammonia in the body is extremely toxic and can lead to encephalopathy, i.e. severe liver damage and even cirrhosis. The effects can also cause neurotoxic damage to the central nervous system.

Ornithine has also been linked to muscle strength and performance and accelerated post-workout recovery. Ornithine supplementation may be indicated for those on high-protein diets and those training intensively. 

L-Ornithine also has a positive effect on the production of collagen, which is responsible for the firmness of the skin, good condition of hair and nails. L-Ornithine also stimulates the production of growth hormone.

As ornithine is converted into arginine, it can be helpful in maintaining normal arginine levels in the body. Ornithine can also be converted into other amino acids such as citrulline, proline, glutamic acid or into creatine, an important source of muscle energy.
