Abstract Part 28 includes a supplement purported to combat fatigue and enhance growth hormone (ornithine); a well-known ingredient (phenylalanine) of a well-known sweetener (aspartame); a possible energy enhancer via 2,3 diphosphoglycerate (phosphate); and a rather dubious supplement purported in the early 1940s to have a wide range of medicinal effects (pangamic acid). Of these, only phosphate appears to have some credible evidence to support the claims of an ergogenic effect.
