Optimum Nutrition Glutamine Powder - Prevent The Loss of Body Mass Through Positive Nitrogen Balance
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, comprising more than 60% of the free amino acid pool in skeletal muscle and greater than 20% of total circulating amino acids. Supplemental L-Glutamine may help reduce muscle soreness and rebuild muscle tissue. During stressful situations (i.e. heavy resistive weight training) the body can lose a large amount of glutamine. A loss of glutamine during exercise may be a signal for protein catabolism (muscle breakdown). Optimum Nutrition Glutamine supplementation has been shown to prevent the loss of body mass through the positive role glutamine plays in protein synthesis and its action as a potent anabolic agent. When muscle glutamine levels are restored and in a positive nitrogen balance muscle synthesis can return to a normal rate.
Glutamine also has actions on glucose metabolism and the regulation of gluconeogenesis. Glutamine converts to glucose without changes in either insulin or glucagen, the hormones that regulate blood sugar. During dieting, and times of carbohydrate depletion, glutamine can exert positive effects on the amount of body fat loss as well as the retention of lean body mass. Each teaspoonful provides 4500 mg of L-Glutamine. Optimum Nutrition's Glutamine Powder is produced and packaged in their own state of the art manufacturing facility. Optimum Nutrition is approved to manufacturer Over-the-Counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals and operates in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP's).
Recommended with Optimum Nutrition's Glutamine Powder for Muscle Repair & Recovery:
Anabolic Liquid Amino Acid – Amino Fuel Research shows that when taken orally, peptide-bonded amino acids increase nitrogen retention better than free form amino acid mixtures for optimum muscle growth.
Promote Muscle Protein Synthesis – BCAA Complex 2200 is metabolized directly in muscle tissue and help to prevent muscle breakdown, promote muscle protein synthesis, provide fuel for muscular energy, speed muscle recovery, enhance endurance and promote anabolic hormone production.
Directions
Mix one teaspoon of Glutamine Powder with 8 oz water or your favorite beverage or use as directed by a physician or licensed nutritionist. Try adding Glutamine Powder to 100% Whey Protein, Pro Complex and other fine Optimum Nutrition products. Use 1-2 servings daily for best results. Store in a cool, dry place.
