Amino Acid - L-Ornithine
L-Ornithine has similar properties to L-Arginine, and is used (sometimes in combination) for wound healing and "muscle tone". However, unlike most other amino acids (including L-Arginine), L-Ornithine is unusual in that it is not incorporated into proteins. Likewise with L-Arginine, L-Onithine has been used in extremely large dosages by intravenous administration to increase the release of growth hormone.
Contraindications: Schizophrenics.
