L-Glutamin Powder

Package size: 1000 g

L-glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid which, at around 20 %, is the main component of free amino acids in blood plasma. Athletes who train hard have an increased need for glutamine, which also rises during stress and especially during overtraining. However, this cannot always be covered by the body's own glutamine production, which is why additional glutamine must be supplied. > 99.9 % pure, fermented and ultra-fine L-glutamine powder significantly higher bioavailability than conventional glutamine produced under the strictest quality standards (IFS and GMP) gluten-free and 100% vegan (without lactose, milk protein or other animal ingredients) free from sugar, fat and salt glutamine is a semi-essential amino acid and a component of proteins Note: L-glutamine is a nitrogen-containing amino acid. Therefore, a certain inherent odour is common and harmless. This product should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Take care of a healthy lifestyle.

What actually is L-glutamine?

L-Glutamine is a proteinogenic, non-essential amino acid. ure. Non-essential means that it can be produced by the body itself. However, the body's own production is reduced in various conditions such as stress or illness. Therefore, supplementation with glutamine is also suitable in such situations.

L-Glutamine is closely related to glutamic acid, which are both known as amino acids one of the The main components and building blocks of proteins are. Both amino acids can be converted into each other. They also have important functions in human metabolism.

In human blood plasma, glutamine represents the highest proportion of all free amino acids at around 20%. The highest glutamine concentration in the body is found in muscles.

L-Glutamine does not occur freely in food, but only bound. Plant sources include soy and wheat.

How does L-glutamine work?

Glutamine has a variety of functions in the human organism.

L-Glutamine is an important component of glutathione. Together with the two amino acids cysteine and glycine, it is involved in its formation. Glutathione is an important antioxidant in the human body, it protects cells from oxidative stress and traps harmful free radicals. Glutamine therefore also plays an important role in immune defense.

The glutamine requirement is during physical training - especially among competitive athletes — increased, which is why supplementation of this amino acid is beneficial. After intensive workouts, the glutamine stores as well as the carbohydrate stores are empty. In order to quickly regain energy, the body needs glucose, which can be obtained from glutamine.

In addition, L-glutamine is considered the main energy carrier of the intestine and plays an important role in maintaining the intestinal barrier and in the impermeability of the intestinal mucosa (leaky-gut). Dosages of 20-30 g of L-glutamine per day are recommended.

When and how should L-glutamine be taken?

We recommend taking 5 g of L-glutamine twice a day. The best time to take it is before or after training and before going to bed.

Are there any risks when taking it?

L-Glutamine is basically suitable for every athlete. However, supplementation should be discussed beforehand with the treating doctor. Particular care should be taken by pregnant and breastfeeding women as well as people with diabetes, epilepsy or reduced kidney function.

L-glutamine vs. glutamate

Also Glutamate is a natural amino acid that is formed during the metabolism of L-glutamine and plays an important role as neurotransmitter the transmission of sensory perceptions, movement control as well as learning and memory performance.

However, it does have flavor enhancers that cause the so-called Chinese restaurant syndrome (headaches, stomachaches, feeling hot, etc.). little to do: This is isolated glutamate, which is chemically combined with various salts. So there is e.g. E.g. monosodium glutamate (E621), monopotassium glutamate (E622) or calcium diglutamate (E623). They are used in industrially processed foods to enhance the taste of the food and belong to the large group of food additives /p>

Our Nutri-Plus L-Glutamine consists of over ;99.9% made from pure, fermented and fine L -Glutamine powder. It therefore has a significantly higher bioavailability than normal, conventional L-glutamine. Our product is developed in Germany by our nutritionists under the strictest quality standards. It is vegan and therefore free of lactose and cholesterol.
