Ornithine is an amino acid that, unlike other amino acids, does not constitute protein, but still performs various functions in the human body. Ornithine is involved in converting ammonia to urea in the urea cycle and converted to proline and made into collagen in skin tissues. As a precursor of polyamine, it is also involved in cell growth, differentiation and multiplication
