ORNITHINE
What is Ornithine?
L-ornithine is an important anti-aging amino acid that promotes growth. It is also a precursor of arginine. Arginine and ornithine are closely related. While arginine is incorporated into body proteins, ornithine is a tool used to make those proteins. The body converts arginine supplements into ornithine, and can convert ornithine into arginine if needed.
The amino acid ornithine works together with arginine and carnitine to promote natural growth hormone release from the pituitary gland. (See HGH)
Ornithine is also thought to metabolize excess body fat. It is required for a properly functioning immune system and assists in ammonia detoxification. It is a central part of the urea cycle, which allows for the disposal of excess nitrogen.
Before taking any nutritional supplement, including amino acids, consult your health care provider first.
