L-Glutamine is the most abundant free
amino acid in your muscle tissue. Under periods of metabolic
stress, glutamine becomes a conditionally essential amino
acid. This means your body may not be able to make enough of
this vital nutrient to supply its needs.
Your small intestine, believe it or not, is one of
the largest "demand centers" in your body for glutamine.
And if glutamine is not supplied in adequate sources from your
diet your body is forced to use its own available
supply...your muscles.
This means all the hard work you do in
the gym trying to add lean muscle mass to your body could be
for naught if your body needs more glutamine than you are
providing it.
It will have no problem "tearing down"
your biceps or thigh muscles in order to "make" enough
glutamine for its needs. This is the last thing you want.
So in order to prevent this from
happening, supplementing with L-Glutamine should be a
requirement for you.
Studies Prove Glutamine's
Effectiveness
Scientific studies have shown glutamine supplementation may
improve protein metabolism and minimize the breakdown of
muscle tissue in people suffering from severe metabolic
stress.
Another recent study revealed that consuming as little as 2
grams (about ½ teaspoon) of free-form L-glutamine (on an empty
stomach) may cause a significant (up to 400%) increase in
growth-hormone levels (T.C. Wellbourne, “Increased Plasma
Bicarbonate and Growth Hormone After an Oral Glutamine Load,”
Am. J. Clin. Nutr. 61 (1995): 1058 – 1061. This means a
perfect time to take this is just before bed on an empty
stomach or just prior to working out.
Because glutamine is a conditionally essential nutrient, it
is not necessary to cycle it. In fact, whenever an optimal
level of glutamine is not maintained, protein metabolism may
be impaired.
