Needed Supplements LOLA is a dietary supplement in powder form to supplement the diet with the amino acids l-Ornithine and l-Aspartic acid.
Stable salt of ornithine and aspartic acid
L-ornithine L-aspartate (LOLA) is a combination of two amino acids: ornithine and l-aspartic acid. Both amino acids are involved in the urea cycle, also known as the ornithine cycle or the urea Krebs cycle.
The urea cycle is the main metabolic pathway in which ammonia is broken down and converted to urea. In this process, ammonia is converted into various amino acids and eventually into urea, which is removed from the body through urine, and to a small extent through sweat. All these ammonia conversions require the presence of two amino acids, ornithine and aspartate, as well as cellular energy in the form of ATP. If the body lacks ornithine or aspartate, this can hinder the conversion of ammonia in the urea cycle. Excessively high levels of toxic ammonia can lead to serious liver damage, so it's important to keep the ammonia utilization process highly efficient.
In summary, Needed LOLA is a pure powdered dietary supplement that provides a stable salt of aspartic acid and l-ornithine, the amino acids involved in the urea cycle.
