Glutamine Powder
Pure Glutamine Powder contains the "conditionally essential"
amino acid L-Glutamine. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in
muscle tissue and plays a key role in many bodily functions. 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.
