L-Glutamine
Overview
L-Glutamine benefits overall health by supporting cellular growth, energy and repair.
Plus, it provides "fuel" for your immune system!
L-glutamine is the most plentiful and versatile amino acid in the body.
Amino acids are building blocks of protein that play crucial roles in creating proteins for muscle growth, tissue repair and wound healing, hormone production, immune function, gut health, mood, and brain function, just to name a few. Amino acids are especially beneficial in times of physical activity, stress and recovery.
L-glutamine plays a vital role in intestinal health and digestive processes.
L-glutamine also supports healthy immune function, brain activity, and energy metabolism.
Give your body an extra boost of "fuel" with L-Glutamine.

How It Works
L-glutamine is crucial for intestinal health and maintaining a healthy gut microbiome. L-glutamine acts as a primary energy source for the immune and digestive systems, supporting a healthy gut immune response to protect against gastrointestinal distress.
L-glutamine is also needed for normal growth and maintenance of intestinal cells in order to maintain the integrity of the gut barrier. L-glutamine supports the cellular integrity of the gut barrier by strengthening tight junctions in intestinal epithelial cells. A healthy gut barrier prevents harmful toxins or foreign bacteria from moving from the intestines into the rest of the body.
Immune cell function, in general, largely depends on l-glutamine availability. L-glutamine is considered as “fuel" for the immune system, meaning insufficient levels may impair immune cell function. In fact, l-glutamine is routinely supplied as a component of clinical nutrition supplementation for both pre-and post-operative patients, as well as for many elite athletes, to restore immune functions.
L-glutamine serves as a precursor (or building block) for the neurotransmitter amino acids in the brain. L-glutamine is involved in energy metabolism within brain cells, promoting healthy brain activity and mental ability.
This amazing amino acid also serves as a precursor for the body's production of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant.
L-glutamine even helps promote a healthy inflammatory response.
Emerging evidence suggests that l-glutamine may be beneficial for cardiovascular health and may play an important role in supporting healthy blood sugar regulation.
Plus, l-glutamine may enhance athletic performance by boosting energy metabolism, supporting muscle recovery, and reducing soreness following exercise. Approximately 80% of the body's l-glutamine is found in skeletal muscle tissues.
