Jarrow FORMULAS Arginine + Ornithine contains only crystalline, pure free form amino acids. L-Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid synthesized by the body from Ornithine. Arginine and Ornithine support protein synthesis as they are involved in the transport and storage of nitrogen. Arginine, as a part of physical performance, is used by muscle tissue to produce creatine.

Arginine and Ornithine combines two essential amino acids into one optimal supplement. Arginine is necessary for urea metabolism, a process that prepares toxic ammonia for safe excretion by the kidneys. Ornithine is synthesized from Arginine and is a precursor of citruline, proline and glutamic acid. Both of these amino acids are popular with athletes and other active individuals.

Tri-Amino is a comprehensive product that combines three important amino acids into one easy-to-take formula. Arginine and Ornithine are amino acids that are components of the urea cycle. Urea is the major end product of protein metabolism. Ammonia, the product of amino acid breakdown, is toxic and must be removed from the body. The urea cycle or the "ornithine cycle" describes the conversion reactions of ammonia into urea. Since these reactions occur in the liver, the urea is then transported to the kidneys where it is excreted. Lysine is an essential amino acid that is known for its role in the maintenance of nitrogen balance. Together these amino acids are critical for protein metabolism
