L-Glutamine
100 Capsules
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the organism, and is involved in more metabolic processes than any other amino acid. Glutamine can be converted into glucose when the body needs additional glucose for energy. It also serves as a source of fuel for cells lining the intestines.
Glutamine is used by white blood cells and is important for immune activity. In animal studies, it has also been shown to promote anti-inflammatory activity. Glutamine in combination with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) supports the synthesis of glutathione, a naturally occurring and important antioxidant. Evidence suggests that megadose glutamine supplementation may be associated with improved survival outcomes in certain conditions.
Glutamine can be found in many protein-rich foods, such as fish, meat, beans, and dairy products. People in good health should get L-glutamine from food sources, while supplementation may be best for people with an illness.
