L-Glutamine is an amino acid, 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 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 as an anabolic precursor for muscle growth.

Why it’s good for you

  • Supports Gut Health

    L-Glutamine is essential for the health of the intestines. It acts as a fuel source for the cells that line the gut, helping to maintain their integrity and function. This can prevent issues like leaky gut syndrome, where toxins and bacteria pass through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream, causing inflammation and other health problems.

  • Enhances Muscle Recovery

    After intense physical activity, your muscles need to recover and rebuild. L-Glutamine helps in the recovery process by reducing muscle soreness and speeding up the repair of muscle tissue. This makes it an important supplement for athletes and those who engage in regular exercise.

  • Boosts Immune Function

    L-Glutamine plays a crucial role in supporting the immune system. It is used by white blood cells during times of stress and illness to function effectively. By ensuring your body has enough L-Glutamine, you can help maintain a robust immune response.
