LOLA is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids L-ornithine and L-aspartate. L-ornithine is known for its role in the urea cycle, where it aids in the removal of ammonia from the bloodstream. Ammonia is a neurotoxic byproduct of protein metabolism, and its accumulation can lead to serious neurological complications, especially in individuals with liver dysfunction. L-aspartate, on the other hand, is involved in the synthesis of various proteins and neurotransmitters, making it essential for overall metabolic health.
