Glutamine

More and more people are using Glutamine as an essential daily supplement and it's easy to see why when you look at the main health benefits associated with the supplement.

Studies have shown that using Glutamine daily can minimise breakdown of muscle tissue as well as improving protein metabolism.

Glutamine makes up over 60% of skeletal muscle making it one of the most common amino acids found in your muscles.
Glutamine is the main transporter of nitrogen into your muscle cells. 

During your workouts the levels of Glutamine are majorly depleted in your body this can lead to a decrease in strength, stamina and recovery. It can take nearly a week for your Glutamine levels to return to normal and with the vital role Glutamine plays in protein synthesis you really need to keep your levels at normal all the time to feel the full benefit of your training.

There is no better time to take Glutamine than when you are in a dieting phase, when your body may be depleted of carbohydrates and fats there is a danger of muscle wastage. Glutamine can really help with tissue breakdown.

How Much Should You Supplement With?

Bodybuilders should take 10 to 15 grams of Glutamine a day - using it 2 to 3 times daily, with each serving at around 5 grams. You may already be getting some Glutamine in your diet from other supplements you're taking. Many protein supplements already have some Glutamine mixed into it, so read the labels to know for sure. Best times to take Glutamine powder is in the morning, after a workout, and at night before bed time
