Dr Clark Ornithine Dietary Supplement - Gluten Free, Natural Sleep Aid, Promotes Protein Metabolism, Cleansing and Detoxification, 500mg, 100 Gelatin Capsules

I love Dr clark products and started buying them off of Amazon to save money on shipping. I use these occasionally for helping me sleep. They work for me.

i bought the 20 day parasite program (older version of the current 18 day program that was half off and still good till aug 2018). thankfully i decided to look more into the program while i waited for the vitamin c that the older program version only mentioned in manual itself. found out this ornithine was recommended with the current parasite program and thank goodness i bought some for i really needed it on fourth night of parasite program, the third night was a restless night galore without it! took 2 and i slept so soundly that i thought it was time to wake up at 3am in the morning. next night took 2 and it did not do much at all so took 4 like i was suppose to do the next night and slept good and followed direction after that somewhat (took 5 next night and 6 after that). seems to require more and more for it to work but, could be cause i am on the higher doses of the parasite program now i suppose but, am not waking up as refresh as i was the first couple uses so i take one arginine in AM now although that stuff doesn't seem to do anything that i can tell.. Since i think the higher parasite program doses is why ornithine is working as well as early on, i am definitely going to still use this when i am finished with parasite program cause unlike the natural alteril sleeping aid i normally take when i can't stay asleep, this ornithine made me feel like i got a good night sleep and i felt great the next day early on in the program.

When I cannot go to sleep and I remember I have had a protein meal, I take this. I take 4 at a time. Works every single time.

This helps me sleep better especially when I'm doing the sauna or other detox protocols.

Great stuff to reduce ammonia in body and brain, but so far hasn't helped with sleep. On the other hand, I have severe insomnia likely from Candida and co spewing off their toxins and poisons over and above what my body can handle. I suspect upping the dosage gradually and sticking with it for a few months will result in more improvement. L-Ornthine is an important part of protein synthesis, along with L-Arnithine and L-Lysine being the other top ones. Anyone suffering from digestive problems should try L-Ornithine, especially those with SIBO, SIFO(FOR SURE), IBS, IBD, Crohn's etc. In the past, I had used L-Ornithine L-Aspartate and did not experience relief like I do with Dr. Clark's product. I also currently use molybdenum(primarily for acetaldehyde die-off), chlorella, bentonite clay, activated charcoal, olive leaf, pao d'arco, monolaurin and others. Also important to replace some good bugs, so making my own yogurt in between, taking probiotics, but mostly trying to get it from food sources. In my health journey I am finding that "Let food be thy medicine" is true. Healing needs to take place on all levels of mind, body and spirit in order to get well. And the path can be a long one. Good luck, take your time and enjoy the unfolding of your life before your eyes.

Just doing 1-3 to start, still having poor sleep. I wish I'd read recommended dosage first. No way can I take 8 capsules at night, and never will.

I took this for the first time last night and really slept. I have a hard time sleeping and I took 4 capsules last night, I was out in less than 45 minutes (probably 10 minutes from when I laid down). I’m going to try just 2 capsules tonight to see if that is just as effective. I normally have to take prescription sleeping meds and I didn’t take any last night.

I've suffered from terrible anxiety and chronic fatigue syndrome for a few years and after doing some research it appears all that "fight or flight" state, whether it be from working out or anxiety, builds up ammonia in your body, causing brain fog, fatigue, etc. Ornithine helps convert excess ammonia into uria so it can be excreted. This stuff was a game changer for me. I started to slowly feel better after a few days. Definitely not out of the woods but wow. I've tried so many things (SSRIs, SNRIs, nootropics, dopamine support, thyroid support, anti-virals, etc) and this seems to be the other thing that had a real effect. It's funny that this is a well-known benefit of Ornithine/Arginine/Citrulline is the body-building community but mental health practitioners have no clue!
