The precursor of ornithine is arginine, which is responsible for the degradation of amino acids and the removal of ammonia from the body in the urea cycle. Ornithine is an important element of the cycle and is necessary for it to be fully completed. Athletes take L-ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate to save the arginine reserves already present in the body and provide them with ornithine, which also plays a key role in removing ammonia.

L-ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate 2:1
L-ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate 2:1 is a salt of glutaric acid and non-protein ornithine. These particles have two glutaric acid molecules per one ornithine molecule. In such a combination, ornithine is better absorbed and more effective than when taken alone.
