- Ideal for combination with L-arginine: L-ornithine and L-arginine work closely together in the urea cycle. L-ornithine is formed from L-arginine and converted back into L-ornithine in the circulation.
- Important in detoxification metabolism: L-ornithine helps convert ammonia, a waste product of protein metabolism, into urea, which is excreted via the kidneys.
- Also ideal for sporting activity: During exercise, ammonia production increases due to the increased metabolism. L-ornithine supports the rapid excretion of this breakdown product.
L-Ornithin

Did you know?
Cell metabolism needs L-Ornithine because the amino acid supports important functions of the organism. For example, L-ornithine is involved in various detoxification processes in the body. It is part of the so-called urea cycle, which enables the organism to convert toxic ammonia into urea and then excrete it via the kidneys. In addition, L-ornithine is also necessary for the formation of numerous other amino acids.
