L-Glutamine Powder 500g
What is L-Glutamine?
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid (protein building block) in the body and is involved in more metabolic processes than any other amino acid. Glutamine is converted to glucose when more glucose is required by the body as an energy source. It serves as a source of fuel for cells lining the intestines. Without it, these cells waste away. It is also used by white blood cells and is important for immune function.
What Does L-Glutamine Do?
It plays a key role in muscle growth, and controlling the "skeletal muscle / whole body glutamate gradient". It is also critical in maintaining and building muscle tissue. The higher the muscle glutamate levels you can maintain, the less chance you have of falling into catabolism and the faster muscle will grow.
- Stimulates muscle protein synthesis by providing nitrogen
- Increases growth hormone which promotes muscle-gain
