L-Glutamine
L-Glutamine capsules supply the amino acid L-glutamine, which is essential for the health of the immune system and the digestive tract. In the gut, it promotes the health and function of the mucosal cells for normal healing and repair. L-Glutamine also supports optimal muscle growth and strength, and it has been shown to be particularly useful in helping to maintain muscle tissue, as it can be used as a substrate for protein synthesis and an anabolic precursor for muscle growth.*
Designs for Health offers L-Glutamine, a free-form amino acid, in two delivery options: vegetarian capsules (850 mg of glutamine per capsule) and a powdered form (3 grams per 3/4 teaspoon serving). Glutamine is the body’s most abundant free-form amino acid, representing approximately 40% to 60% of the total amino acid pool in the body. Glutamine is required to perform a variety of essential functions.
Often referred to as the multitasker, glutamine is a nutrient with an impressive range of health benefits. It helps support normal blood glucose metabolism, build lean muscle, and promote a normal immune response.*
In the gut, glutamine promotes the health and function of the mucosal cells for normal repair. Furthermore, glutamine distributes nitrogen freely to the cells that need it the most, such as the immune cells, the gut cells, and the muscle cells. Glutamine is also fuel for brain cells, which helps to maintain mental energy.*
