NOW Foods Sports L-Glutamine 1000mg

Glutamine has recently been the focus of much scientific interest. A growing body of evidence suggests that during certain stressful times, the body may require more Glutamine than it can produce. Under these circumstances Glutamine may be considered a “conditionally essential” amino acid. Glutamine is involved in maintaining a positive nitrogen balance (an anabolic state) and also aids rapidly growing cells (immune system lymphocytes and intestinal cell enterocytes). In addition, Glutamine is a regulator of acid-base balance and a nitrogen transporter. This double-strength 1000mg dosage is ideal for those that are in heavier training cycles, or individuals under higher degrees of stress.

Recommended Dosage: Adult Dosage: Take 2 capsules 3 times daily, between meals.

Caution: Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are following a low protein diet. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
