tissue from weight-lifting workouts, amino acids play
an important role. Of all of the amino acids, Glutamine
is the most used. In this article you can learn how

What glutamine does to the body
Glutamine is the most abundant of all non-essential
amino acids in the body. When the body is busy rebuilding
tissue from weight-lifting workouts, amino acids play
an important role. Of all of the amino acids, Glutamine
is the most used. It is also an important fuel source
for bodybuilding exercise and used for maintaining normal
immune function. The amino acid also increases cell
volume through hydration. It creates a anabolic effect
for positive growth because of the positive nitrogen
balance. It acts like a buffer by setting a negative
charge against the positive charge of acids. This in
turn gives you longer, more intense workout with less
muscle soreness.
Glutamine Side Effects
There is no adverse side effects. Too much Glutamine
might be counterproductive and can possibly reduce growth
hormone production.
Glutamine Facts
In one study, Glutamine supplements has increased Human
Growth Hormone by 430% It provides a positive nitrogen
balance for anabolic state. It helps produce high energy
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for muscle contractions.
How to use Glutamine
The best time to take Glutamine is before and after
a workout. After a workout it should be mixed with a
protein and carbohydrate drink. Because whey protein
is naturally high in glutamine, it could be used for
the after workout nutrition. It is recommended to take
between 6 to 10 grams per day for a bodybuilder who
trains on a regular schedule.
