This formula pairs two amino acids — \u003cstrong\u003earginine\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eornithine\u003c\/strong\u003e — chosen to support the body's natural growth hormone output, and it works best when taken to coincide with those natural pulses. It is built on Pure Encapsulations' hypoallergenic, additive-free base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePer serving:\u003c\/strong\u003e L-Arginine HCl 1,000 mg · Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) 500 mg, with ascorbyl palmitate.

This is also why \u003cstrong\u003etiming and an empty stomach matter so much\u003c\/strong\u003e: a protein-containing meal both competes for absorption and triggers an insulin response that blunts the GH pulse. Taken away from food — before bed or before training — the amino acids have a clear run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy ornithine is the partner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eArginine and \u003cstrong\u003eornithine\u003c\/strong\u003e sit next to each other in the urea cycle, and ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) supports nitrogen balance and the synthesis of glutamine and proline — useful for tissue repair. Used together, the two amino acids are intended to support the GH response more effectively than either alone. As a bonus, arginine is the direct precursor to \u003cstrong\u003enitric oxide\u003c\/strong\u003e, the molecule that relaxes blood vessels and supports blood flow — relevant around exercise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho it may suit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eActive adults supporting healthy growth hormone production, lean muscle, training recovery, and the body's natural repair processes — and those interested in healthy-aging support, since GH output naturally declines with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to take it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eTake on an \u003cstrong\u003eempty stomach\u003c\/strong\u003e — before bedtime or about an hour before a workout — or as directed by your healthcare professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecautions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eTake on an empty stomach as directed; reduce the dose if digestive upset occurs. Arginine can trigger reactivation of the herpes simplex (cold sore) virus in susceptible people — use with caution if you are prone to cold sores. If you take blood pressure medication or nitrates, or are pregnant or breastfeeding, do not use without first consulting your healthcare professional.
