L-glutamine is one amino acid which bodybuilders and strength athletes won't be without. It is widely regarded as one of the most important building blocks of protein, and central to muscle gain, tissue repair and training recovery. It is particularly important when training intensely, performing cardio alongside strength training, or cutting for a dieting phase.
L-glutamine has a role in many physical processes, including muscular endurance, offsetting hunger, alleviating muscle cramps and pains and in building new muscle tissue.
We can get l-glutamine from meats, fish and other wholefoods but it is very difficult to take in the optimum nutritional amounts from food alone (and would be very costly and calorific). Using a quality, pharmaceutical grade l-glutamine supplement is considered vital by hard-training strength and power athletes and anyone wanting to maximise muscle gain.
Endurance athletes and people training with high volume also like to take l-glutamine powder because it helps with fatigue and with recovery between sessions.
L-glutamine is even helpful for the elderly as is works very well as a natural remedy for muscular pains, cramps and soreness.

L Glutamine Benefits
Muscle protection, lean gains, recovery, endurance.
L-glutamine is a very popular amino acid supplement because it has so many benefits for anyone involved in strength, muscle or endurance training. It is needed by every muscle in the body and helps protect muscle tissue, particularly when dieting, doing cardio or training with high volume. For this reason, it has a central role in the supplement stack of competitive bodybuilders, power athletes and endurance sport participants.
L Glutamine Dosage and Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, mix 5g with 50ml of desired liquid and take 1 to 3 times daily or as required. Can also be added to protein shakes. 1 flat 5ml scoop provides an estimated 5g serving. Scoop included in package.

I purchased this as I was diagnosed with severe leaky gut. My Naturopath said to take 20mg each and every day in my smoothie. This has certainly helped my situation to the extent that I no longer have those "urgency" moments. I would suggest that anyone who also has leaky gut and/or IBS try this after speaking to your Health Professional. Good luck!!! |

I first tried this from a free sample added with my WPC order. During the time I had ongoing muscle cramping which the usual magnesium supplementation didn't help with. Having this (3 x 5mg per day) seems to have reduced these cramps. I can't conclude 100% this would work for you, however it's worth a try if you're experiencing similar. |
