99% L-Glutamine Food Grade White Crystalline Powder
L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found in human muscle and plasma. Over 60% of the free-floating amino acid pool in skeletal muscle cells is made up of L glutamine. It is also a primary nitrogen donor, meaning that it moves the nitrogen around in the body to where it is needed. Maintaining a positive nitrogen balance is absolutely necessary for muscle building.
While once considered non-essential, it is now known as a conditionally essential amino acid. During physical stress, such as intense exercise or surgery, the body requires more glutamine to maintain stores in blood and muscle. Depleted stores can lead to decreases in strength, stamina, and recovery.
1. Glutamine comprises about eight percent of the total amino acid count in the body's protein structures, essential for basic health.
2. Widely used in both athletic supplements and medical applications.
3. Helps maintain nitrogen balance and enhances cognitive function during intense physical activity, while healing bone, skin, and muscle tissue.
