What glutamine does to the body

Glutamine is the most abundant of all non-essential amino acids in the body. When the body is busy rebuilding tissue from weight-lifting workouts, amino acids play an important role. Of all of the amino acids, Glutamine is the most used. It is also an important fuel source for bodybuilding exercise and used for maintaining normal immune function. The amino acid also increases cell volume through hydration. It creates a anabolic effect for positive growth because of the positive nitrogen balance. It acts like a buffer by setting a negative charge against the positive charge of acids. This in turn gives you longer, more intense workout with less muscle soreness.

Glutamine Side Effects

There is no adverse side effects. Too much Glutamine might be counterproductive and can possibly reduce growth hormone production.

Glutamine Facts

Growth Hormone by 430%

How to use Glutamine

The best time to take Glutamine is before and after a workout. After a workout it should be mixed with a protein and carbohydrate drink. Because whey protein is naturally high in glutamine, it could be used for the after workout nutrition. It is recommended to take between 6 to 10 grams per day for a bodybuilder who trains on a regular schedule.
