NutraPlanet Glutamine Powder

NutraPlanet.com Glutamine Powder represents an economical choice for intelligent athletes. Obtained from the most reputable manufacturers available, NutraPlanet.com Glutamine never sacrifices quality or functionality for the sake of price.

Glutamine was thought to be a non-essential amino acid, meaning it can be produced by the body and is involved in a variety of metabolic processes. But Glutamine has recently been re-classified as a conditionally essential amino acid, meaning that while the body can make Glutamine, under extreme physical stress the demand for glutamine exceeds the body's ability to synthesize it.

This “Glutamine Deficit” explains why it is essential for athletes to supplement their dietary intake with additional glutamine. In fact, Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and therefore supplemental Glutamine has been called the amino acid superstar for athletes who would normally deplete glutamine stores faster than sedentary individuals. Glutamine, whether synthesized by the body or gained from supplemental intake, is predominantly stored in skeletal muscle for later use.

Compounding the importance for additional dietary Glutamine is that Glutamine is involved in more metabolic processes than any other amino acid.

Perhaps where Glutamine powder shines the most is in its ability to prevent over-training and reduce muscle fatigue and soreness; something that anyone who picks up a dumbbell should be interested in. In part, Glutamine achieves this by helping the body to expel excess ammonia and other waste products instead of letting these exercise by-products build up in your system, robbing you or achieving maximum athletic output.

Glutamine has also been shown to increase growth hormone output, thereby putting the body in a steady-state anabolic environment.

Additionally, Glutamine is one of the most documented amino acids for general health and well-being. As the primary source of energy for the various cells of the immune system, including T cells and macrophages, Glutamine helps to fight off viral and bacterial infections, not to mention muscle stress and trauma. In fact, Glutamine is used heavily in the clinical setting to help critically ill patients recover at a faster rate.

Very rarely does a supplement get used unanimously by pro-bodybuilders regardless of training style, frequency or intensity. Glutamine Powder is the rare exception simply because it is invaluable to the trained athlete.

Standard issue at this price By: Chris

Glutamine used to be significantly more expensive than this - I remember paying around $50 for a kilo of Nutra's bulk glutamine just two years ago - and I was never a heavy user because of that cost, though I've always been a fan of it when I could afford it. Seeing now that a kilo is just $25, I'll be reintroducing it into my routine for good. This is not an instant-gratification supplement, but in the long-term you'll notice tremendous benefit from its ability to improve muscle recovery and reduce soreness, as well as support immunity and gut health. I like five grams upon waking, pre- and post-workout, and before bed. You may even bump up the bedtime dosage to further boost growth hormone levels during sleep. A lot of pros and top amateurs swear by as much as 40 to 50 grams a day.

5g pre/5g post workout. 3 sets reverse grip barbell curls, 3 sets (heavy) curls on incline bench, 3 sets preacher with drop set on last and this stuff feels like little elves dancing on my bis in the middle of the night. Never tried a glutamine supp before, but if this is any indication of it's muscle repair speed I'm impressed.
