L-GLUTAMINE 400 grams. L-Glutamine powder by ANSI. L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and due to its small size, it transports easily into muscle, preventing muscle-breakdown (catabolism) and supporting growth. L-Glutamine also increases plasma arginine and glutamate, two amino acids linked to growth hormone production. L-glutamine should be taken on an empty stomach to improve competition for absorption.

L-glutamine is the most prevalent amino acid in the bloodstream and because human cells readily synthesize it, is usually considered a non-essential amino acid. It is found in high concentration in skeletal muscle, lung, liver, brain, and stomach tissue. Skeletal muscle contains the greatest intracellular concentration of glutamine, comprising up to 60 percent of total body glutamine stores, and is considered the primary storage depot and exporter of glutamine to other tissues. Under certain pathological circumstances the body's tissues need more glutamine than the amount supplied by diet and biosynthesis. During catabolic stress intracellular glutamine levels can drop more than 50 percent, and it is under these circumstances that supplemental glutamine becomes necessary.
