Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found primarily in muscles. If the body cannot produce glutamine in sufficient quantities, one can resort to additional sources through diet and supplements commonly found in the form of powdered drink mixes, pills or tablets. Animal and plant proteins are dietary sources of glutamine as well.
Catabolism refers to the breaking down of molecules into smaller units where as anabolism encourages the building of larger muscle fibers. Glutamine boosts the production of human growth hormones, which in turn promotes anabolism and leads to increased protein synthesis. The added glutamine is synthesized into new protein tissue as well. The anabolic properties of glutamine are also helpful in the fat burning process by promoting muscle growth and the production of the human growth hormone.
Glutamine enhances the intestines ability to resist the invasion of harmful micro-organisms, apart from promoting cell reproduction and boosting the body’s immune system. Glutamine is also one of the building blocks of glutathione, the body’s primary antioxidant. As glutamine promotes healing of wounds, it is often given to patients who have cancer, AIDS, trauma, burns and other infections. It is often used as an oral rinse to reduce mouth sores and other stomach irritation associated with chemotherapy to treat cancer.
Glutamine is one of the building blocks for the production of neurotransmitters (glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid, known as GABA) in the brain. Glutamine is converted into glucose when the brain contains a deficiency. Users of glutamine supplements often report a better overall mood and feel less fatigued.
Glutamine is believed to reduce cravings in alcoholics and sugar addicts who may also find glutamine supplementation a way to ease the stomach pain and mental toxicity that comes when they stop consuming alcohol or sugar.
Although there are no known drug interactions or nutrient problems associated with glutamine, some users have complained of minor headaches. Best taken in an empty stomach, the typical dosage for glutamine is between 2 and 20 grams. Our advice would be to choose L-glutamine over D-glutamine, as it more closely resembles the substance in its natural form.
