L- Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid (building block of protein) in the bloodstream. It is considered a “conditionally essential amino acid” because it can be manufactured in the body, but under extreme physical stress the demand for glutamine exceeds the body’s ability to synthesize it. A multi-purpose amino acid, it generates energy and helps increase strength, and for exercise, increased endurance and a quicker recovery. It is also protective of the digestive system and brain.
Gut Health: Glutamine heals and protects the gut, improving intestinal function, and allowing better absorption of nutrients.
Blood sugar: Glutamine can be used by cells in the place of glucose to produce metabolic energy, thus helping to raise blood sugar in low blood sugar conditions. By the same mechanism, it reduces cravings for sugar, carbohydrates, and alcohol.
Brain Function: Glutamine crosses the blood–brain barrier and helps maintain good brain function. It is derived from glutamic acid or glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter which improves mental alertness, clarity of thinking, and mood. Glutamate is also a precursor of GABA, the calming neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.
Directions: Take one capsule once or twice daily on an empty stomach, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. For acute alcohol and sugar cravings: open a capsule and pour the contents under the tongue. The craving will disappear. Try it!
