Cytoplan L-Glutamine 100G Powder

Pure free- form L-glutamine powder to support muscle recovery, GI tract health, and the immune system. Pleasant-tasting powder form, suited for high dose use, and easy to mix into water or other liquids for people who prefer not to take capsules or tablets.

L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, with significant concentrations present in the digestive tract where it helps maintain the health of the gut lining. Glutamine is also stored and used by the muscles as muscle tissue has high glutamine requirements.

Glutamine can be made in the body from other amino acids and is therefore considered a non-essential amino acid. However, during periods of stress, injury, illness, infection, or intense exercise, the body's demand for glutamine increases. In these situations, the body's ability to produce sufficient glutamine may be surpassed, making it a conditionally essential amino acid. Supplementing with L-glutamine helps replenish levels, supporting tissue repair, immune function, and GI tract health. 

How to take it

1 to 5 grams daily taken in divided doses, ideally half an hour away from food or at bedtime. This slightly sweet powder can be stirred into water or juice or sprinkled on food. If being used to support exercise recovery should be taken within 2 hours of completion of exercise and the dose for this use can be raised to 10g.
