Physiological Functions & Effects:
The main function of orotic acid is to metabolize folic acid together with vitamin B12. Rich orotic acid helps replace vitamin B12, although it can not completely replace it, but it can reduce the damage caused by vitamin B12 deficiency. This acid is also used in cosmetics, medicines, and animal feed supplements.
It is also widely used in bodybuilding competitions around the world because it can increase the secretion of adenosine triphosphate (the main energy source of the body). Orotic acid does this by being a preliminary form of pyrophosphate, which is then used in pyrimidine synthesis. The more pyrophosphate there is in the body, the more adenosine triphosphate can be produced.
