Overview
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and is involved in more metabolic processes than any other amino acid. Glutamine is an amino acid that helps the body maintain the proper PH balance and is a necessary part of the synthesis of RNA and DNA. Glutamine is converted to glucose when the body requires more glucose as an energy source. It also helps promote a healthy digestive tract, serving as a source fuel for cells lining the intestines. Studies indicate that a deficiency of Glutamine may be a factor in many gastrointestinal disorders. In fact, scientists believe that supplementation can improve overall intestinal health. Glutamine can easily pass the blood-brain barrier where it is converted into glutamic acid. It is not one of the nine essential amino acids (which refers to aminos that the body does not manufacture and that must be ingested), but during times of extreme stress or prolonged illness, it is important to supplement with glutamine. L-glutamine supports the growth of new cells; and it may enhance the healing of wounds such as burns, surgical and traumatic wounds and cuts.
This formula uses the L form of Glutamine because it is closer to that which is manufactured by the body. It is derived from a natural fermentation process of glucose and starches.
Our L-Glutamine 500mg is available in 100 count vegetarian capsules.
