Glutamine Powder: The Most Abundant Amino Acid In The Body
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body,
comprising more than 60% of the free amino acid pool in skeletal muscle and
greater than 20% of total circulating amino acids. Supplemental L-Glutamine
may help reduce muscle soreness and rebuild muscle tissue. During stressful
situations (i.e. heavy resistive weight training) the body can lose a large
amount of glutamine. A loss of glutamine during exercise may be a
signal for protein catabolism (muscle breakdown). Glutamine
supplementation has been shown to prevent the loss of body mass through the
positive role glutamine plays in protein synthesis and its action
as a potent anabolic agent. When muscle glutamine levels are restored and
in a positive nitrogen balance muscle synthesis can return to a normal rate.
Glutamine also has actions on glucose metabolism and the regulation of
gluconeogenesis. Glutamine converts to glucose without changes in
either insulin or glucagen, the hormones that regulate blood sugar. During
dieting, and times of carbohydrate depletion, glutamine can exert
positive effects on the amount of body fat loss as well as the retention of lean
body mass. Each teaspoonful provides 4500 mg of L-Glutamine. Optimum
Nutrition's Glutamine Powder is produced and packaged in their own state of
the art manufacturing facility. Optimum Nutrition is approved to
manufacturer Over-the-Counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals and operates in accordance
with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP's).
