One study demonstrated the potential for
arginine and ornithine in combination to support lean muscle mass
when combined with physical training.

Supports healthy growth hormone levels

*The amino acids arginine and ornithine have been shown to
synergistically support healthy growth hormone production. Growth
hormone is naturally released by the pituitary gland in response to
sleep and exercise in order to help replenish tissues. It supports
muscle protein synthesis, moderates the breakdown of muscle tissue
and promotes fat utilization for energy. Arginine supports healthy
growth hormone synthesis and is also a precursor for protein
synthesis. Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) is composed of two
molecules of ornithine and one molecule of alpha-ketoglutarate. OKG
has demonstrated the ability to support healthy nitrogen balance,
important for healthy muscle function. OKG also promotes healthy
polyamine, arginine and glutamine levels, important metabolites for
muscle protein support. One study demonstrated the potential for
arginine and ornithine in combination to support lean muscle mass
when combined with physical training. A second study also suggests
a possible role of arginine and ornithine in supporting lean muscle
mass and strength training when combined with a high intensity
exercise program.

Taken one hour before physical activity or bedtime, arginine and OKG
may support healthy growth hormone production and may also
promote healthy muscle protein synthesis, muscle recovery, and lean
muscle mass when combined with physical training.
