Prolab Glutamine Powder

Pure Glutamine Powder contains the "conditionally essential" amino acid L-Glutamine. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and plays a key role in many bodily functions.* During stressful situations (i.e. heavy resistive weight training) the body can lose a large amount of glutamine. A loss of glutamine during exercise may be a signal for protein catabolism (muscle breakdown). Studies suggest that glutamine supplementation may prevent the loss of body mass through the positive role glutamine plays in protein synthesis.* When muscle glutamine levels are restored and in a positive nitrogen balance muscle synthesis can return to a normal rate. Glutamine also has actions on glucose metabolism and the regulation of gluconeogenesis.* Glutamine converts to glucose without changes in either insulin or glucagen, the hormones that regulate blood sugar.* During dieting, and times of carbohydrate depletion, glutamine can exert positive effects on the amount of body fat loss as well as the retention of lean body mass.*

Glutamine is the single most abundant amino acid found in skeletal muscle and is widely believed to help with muscle cell volumization.* Enhance your training and nutrition program with Glutamine Powder. A recent study suggested an increase in growth-hormone levels when as little as 2 grams of free-form L-glutamine supplement was consumed!* Get ripped and huge!*
