Lamberts L-Glutamine capsules are a convenient and easy way to supplement the diet with this fascinating amino acid.

Glutamine is the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acid in the body and it can be derived from glutamic acid, another member of the amino acid family. Both glutamine and glutamic acid can be found in protein-rich foods such as red meat, nuts and fish. But with intense exercise, glutamine stores can be significantly reduced. It is recommended that the glutamine supplement be used immediately before or after exercise to keep its levels stable. Glutamine supplies energy to the muscle during exercise and accelerates muscle recovery after exercise.

Glutamine plays a vital role in metabolic processes. In the absence of energy, the body is able to convert glutamine to glucose and it is a nutrient for gastrointestinal cells. Glutamine is also used by white blood cells and is important for the immune system to function

Different tissues in the body have different requirements for L-glutamine and the most eager consumers of glutamine are the cells of intestines, whilst muscles are known to be high producers of L-glutamine.

The dose of L-Glutamine can vary greatly depending on health concerns. The maintenance dose is 1 capsule a day, but be sure to consult a specialist (pharmacist, doctor, therapist, sports doctor, nutritionist, etc.) for a specific health problem and the resulting dosing schedule.

Lamberts amino acid Glutamine is in the free “L” form, which means that L-glutamine is ready to be absorbed and used by the body.
