Re: Ornithine on Liver cleanse night

[Guest guest]

Hi Michele

I've never included Ornithine even when I did the cleanse. I have,

once or twice, used Valerian Root tincture if I thought I might have trouble

sleeping, but most often I've not used anything and I don't believe it has

hindered the cleanse in any way.

just my .02

Dr recommends taking 4 - 8 on a liver cleanse night (to help

sleep). I have bought some but it doesn't mention anywhere that this

helps enduce sleep and that it is a " food supplement " . They also sold

me the L-Ornithine capsules (which says to take 1 a day) - so will

taking 4 of these harm the cleanse or not? And is L-Orithine the same

as Ornithine?

Has anyone else included this is their liver cleanse (Dr 's

method) and does it matter if you miss it out?

Hi,

I've done the liver cleanse with and without the Ornithine capsules. I don't

notice that it makes any difference for me, one way or the other. However, I

more often than not, take the 4 prescribed capsules called for in Dr. 's

cleanse. The capsules I take are 500mg each, and are called vegicaps. Serving

size is one per day, with juice or water. The label does identify it as a

dietary supplement. Everything I've read about Ornithine confirms what you've

stated, and I'd like to add that I've read (sorry I can't remember the source-it

was a from a search I did on the internet though) that the jury is out regarding

it's helpfulness as a dietary supplement. Not that there is anything harmful

about it, just that it's one of those supplements that have not been proven to

actually be that beneficial.

Forgot to add that the label also identifies it as L-Ornithine...don't know

what the L stands for, but I'm pretty sure this is what we are supposed to be

taking.
