What it is
Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body. Under stress — heavy training, illness, surgery — demand exceeds supply, and it becomes conditionally essential.
How it works
Supports the integrity of the gut lining, helps maintain immune cell activity under stress, and contributes to muscle protein synthesis post-training.
The protocol
5 g post-workout or on an empty stomach, mixed in water.
Sourcing
Pharmaceutical-grade L-glutamine, third-party tested for purity.
Honest caution
Generally safe. People with cirrhosis or certain seizure disorders should consult a clinician.
What it supports
- Gut lining support — Primary fuel for the cells that line the small intestine.
- Recovery — Supports muscle and immune recovery after demanding training.
