Glutamine is the body’s most abundant free-form amino acid. Often referred to as the multitasker, glutamine is a nutrient with an impressive range of health benefits. It helps support normal blood glucose metabolism, build lean muscle, and promote a normal immune response.* In the gut, glutamine promotes the health and function of the mucosal cells for normal repair. Furthermore, glutamine distributes nitrogen freely to the cells that need it most, such as the immune cells, the gut cells, and the muscle cells. Glutamine is also fuel for brain cells, which helps to maintain mental energy.
Take 3 grams (approximately ¾ teaspoon) per day or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Can be mixed into water, juice, or shakes.
