Boost Vitality with the Best L Glutamine Supplements
What's L Glutamine and where is it found?
L Glutamine is the most common amino acid found in bodily fluids and muscles. Some foods, like eggs, beef, corn, white rice, tofu and skim milk, also contain L Glutamine.
The body’s glutamine levels naturally deplete during times of extreme stress, such as heavy exercise or injury. This leads to a decrease in strength, stamina and muscle recovery.
Thankfully, our powdered supplement can replenish the body’s L Glutamine levels to help fuel your fitness journey. It also works to aid muscle recovery and immune function, further enhancing your vitality.
L Glutamine also contains anti-catabolism properties that work to prevent muscular atrophy (also known as muscle wastage). It aims to improve protein metabolism and minimise the breakdown of muscles. This is particularly useful for those concerned with preserving muscle while dieting

About Glutamine
Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid which is abundant in the body. It occurs naturally in some foods including dairy and meat but can be synthesised by the body. Glutamine can be beneficial for immune and gut health while having a positive effect on muscular recovery.
During times of increased physical and mental stress glutamine levels can be negatively affected, so supplementing with Glutamine can be beneficial during these periods.
Glutamine FAQs
What does L Glutamine do?
Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid that is abundant in the body. It becomes an “essential” amino acid when the body is in a heavily compromised state, ie when it is fighting disease.
That’s why L Glutamine supplements are popular for their ability to improve immune function and gut health.
How much evidence is there for Glutamine's benefits?
Most of the evidence supporting the use of Glutamine comes from those who have Glutamine deficiencies. This is most likely to come from a very low protein intake, eg cases of veganism.
There is also evidence for Glutamine assisting exercise preservation, as it prevents the body from depleting glutamine stores which can occur in longer endurance activities.
Is L Glutamine good for muscle growth?
Unfortunately, there isn’t much evidence to support the use of L Glutamine for muscle growth.
Rather, this supplement is more commonly used to aid muscles in recovering from strenuous training sessions.
Can Glutamine be converted directly to glucose?
Yes, when carbohydrates are in short supply, Glutamine can convert into glucose in the body.
It should be noted that studies showed when paired with a carbohydrate, L Glutamine reduces the blood glucose response compared to if a carbohydrate is used alone.
Can Glutamine prevent me from getting sick?
Much of Glutamine’s benefits are in relation to the intestinal and immune systems, however, there is more evidence that it supports repair from sickness rather than preventing it.
