Product Description
• What is L-Glutamine?
L-Glutamine is an amino acid made by our bodies and found circulating in the blood as well as being stored in the skeletal muscles.
Glutamine becomes conditionally essential (required intake from food or supplements) when the body’s immune system is placed under acute pressure. Dietary sources of L-Glutamine include dairy, fish, certain meats, wheat, and certain vegetables. Pharmanutri’s L-Glutamine is a convenient way to supplement your intake of this essential amino acid.
• Who is it for?
L-Glutamine has been created for athletes who regularly exercise, both men and women. During intense training, Glutamine levels are greatly depleted in your body, which decreases strength, stamina, and recovery. It could take up to 6 days for Glutamine levels to return to normal – and Glutamine plays a key role in protein synthesis. Studies have shown that L-Glutamine supplementation can minimize the breakdown of muscle and improve protein metabolism.

• L-Glutamine is an amino acid, which are the building blocks of protein, and thus can contribute to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass. L-Glutamine further benefits the body from the associated benefits of taking amino acids.
