L-Ornithine 500mg 120VC
What is L-Ornithine?
Ornithine is a non-essential amino acid that plays a central role in the urea cycle, functioning along with Arginine and Citrulline to rid the body of ammonia, a by-product of protein metabolism. Because Ornithine is converted into Arginine, it can help to maintain healthy Arginine levels in the body. Ornithine can also be converted into other amino acids, such as citrulline, proline, and glutamate, as well as creatine, an important muscular energy source.

BetterStevia® is a zero-calorie, low glycemic, non-GMO, plant-derived sweetener that makes a perfectly healthy substitute for table sugar and artificial sweeteners.

NOW stevia is processed using a special enzymatic treatment that results in a clean, superior tasting stevia extract. Their focus is on quality and freshness giving BetterStevia® a well-rounded, sweet taste that’s very close to that of pure sugar, without the calories or the guilt. This is why it is called BetterStevia®.
