Glutamine the Wonder Amino Acid

Although Glutamine is know as a non essential amino acid or in other words your body has the ability to produce it’s own. Under certain situations this may have some merit however our skeletal muscles consist of a staggering 60% Glutamine, therefore during prolonged exercise Glutamine levels can quickly become depleted leaving you deficient restricting muscle growth and recovery

Glutamine is also used for many other functions throughout the body, further adding to the demand and as a result supplementing with Glutamine is recommended so as to ensure optimal levels of Glutamine are maintained at all times

Other benefits include:

Boosts Immunity

Prevents and Repairs Leaky Gut

Aids Digestion

Repairs Gut Lining

Supports Wound Healing including burns

Helps with recovery from surgery

Reduces duration of (DOMS) ‘Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness’ from intense exercise

Increases Growth Hormone Levels

As you can see regardless of whether you are an elite athlete, bodybuilder or someone just looking to improve/maintain general health and wellbeing many benefits can be expected from supplementing with Glutamine

Recommended serving size is between 10g to 15g per day
