L-GLUTAMINE is a supplement taken in times of stress (physical and mental), and
at recovery after injury or medical surgery.
This semi-essential amino acid plays a key role in the anabolism of protein in
the human body. But its function is more than constructive. It is essential for
cell growth and its the most important fuel for the immune system. It stimulates
the synthesis of glycogen in liver and muscles and, it reduces the acidification
of muscles after training.
Technically, L-Glutamine isn't essential, but in periods of stress the body needs
so much of it, it can’t make enough by itself. Studies show that supplementing
L-Glutamine can decrease the breakdown of muscle tissue effectively.
