INNER ARMOUR L-Glutamine x 300g + 100g FREE

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in both the plasma (20%) and intracellular muscle tissue pools (60%).

Glutamine plays many roles in our body that may directly or indirectly affect immune function, cellular recovery, protein synthesis, and muscle growth. It is the preferred gut fuel, as well as, the fuel source for rapidly dividing cells, such as enterocytes, coloncytes, fibroblasts, macrophages, lymphocytes and neoplastic cells.

It is aprecursor to metabolic biosynthesis pathways such as gluconeogenesis. And due to its two-amine groups, glutamine is involved in nitrogen shuttling between cells.

During times of physical stress and exertion, glutamine uptake may exceed synthesis and release from skeletal muscle resulting with depleted reserves. Glutamine's role in the body is critical to optimum performance.

During times of catabolic stress these levels can drop dramatically and the inter organ flow changes, and it is unable to fuel its many functions, especially those with immune function.

The benefit of L-Glutamine for the bodybuilder is two-fold.

• First, the exercising muscle causes a greater demand for L-Glutamine and the anabolic muscle building support this amino acid offers.
• Secondly, gyms and fitness centres are notorious germ incubators. Sweat and other bodily fluids are passed by hand contact from one user to another. Combine this germ exposure with hard training which can strain the immune system and you have an excellent recipe for illness.

Utilizing L-glutamine supplementation can help fortify the glutamine reserves and potentially present muscle degradation and susceptibility to colds and flu. Inner Armour Pure L-Glutamine is the purest L-glutamine available. L-glutamine products identified with the AllPure system of quality are analyzed for purity. Guaranteed free of impurities. L-Glutamine™ is an essential and proven aid to muscle building and training programs. Support your muscular demands with this ultra pure micronized amino acid.

Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, mix 1 serving (5gm) in water or juice beverage and consume
