Glutamine Pure Powder

Cabot Health Glutamine Pure Powder – 175G

Glutamine is a natural amino acid vital for muscle growth, maintaining a healthy digestive system and supporting brain function. L-glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and is an essential building block of protein. It has been categorised as a conditionally essential amino acid required in more significant amounts during extreme stress, physical trauma, illness, and muscle wasting. It is a highly absorbable powder form and contains a whopping 5 grams of L-glutamine per teaspoon.

The benefits of Glutamine;

• Gut repair: The cells in the small intestine use L-glutamine as their primary fuel source to promote healing. This amino acid may help reduce inflammation and repair the intestinal lining in those with leaky gut, food sensitives and inflammatory bowel disease. In cases of leaky gut (intestinal permeability), there are gaps between the intestinal lining cells that can allow toxins and food particles to leak through, which can cause inflammation. L-glutamine may help bridge the gaps between the cells to strengthen the gut lining.

• Muscle recovery: When L-glutamine is taken around the time of exercise, it may help to fuel the muscle cells to reduce muscle fatigue and improve muscle recovery. It has been shown to stimulate muscle growth and repair, particularly in cases of muscle wasting. Glutamine Pure may help those who exercise regularly to boost performance.

• Improved immunity: L-glutamine is required to produce and divide immune cells such as lymphocytes. These immune cells are responsible for fighting off bacteria to avoid an infection. Low levels of this amino acid have been associated with low immunity and an increased risk of infection. Supplementing may help to boost immunity.

• Wound healing: When the body gets an injury such as a burn, it releases cortisol (the stress hormone) into the body. Cortisol can deplete L-glutamine stores and could increase the risk of infection. Studies have shown that this amino acid may help support wound healing and prevent infections, particularly after surgery or severe burns.

• Detoxification: L-glutamine helps form glutathione, the most potent antioxidant in the body. L-glutamine is required for the liver detoxification pathways and helps to support the removal of toxins and waste products (such as excess ammonia) from the body. This amino acid could be used as part of a detox regime.

• Brain health: L-glutamine is essential for producing glutamic acid and GABA, necessary neurotransmitters in the brain. These brain chemicals are needed for healthy brain development and function. L-glutamine could help boost brain function and is called the “thinkers amino acid”.

• Supporting side effects of medical treatment: It could be used to help support the side effects of some medical treatments, such as chemotherapy. It may help reduce side effects such as joint pain, diarrhoea, infections and nerve pain. L-glutamine may also assist in recovery after a bone marrow transplant.
