L-Glutamine
L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body, produced primarily in skeletal muscle and then released into circulation. It serves vital roles in various tissues, including the immune system, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, and liver, where it supports essential functions such as maintaining intestinal integrity, immune response, and amino acid balance. Although traditionally classified as a non-essential amino acid, during periods of severe stress, glutamine becomes conditionally essential due to the body's increased demand. It acts as a critical nitrogen and carbon transporter between organs, and while the intestinal mucosa can synthesize glutamine, this production is insufficient during times of significant physiological stress. Dietary supplements generally contain L-glutamine as it is the biologically active form of the amino acid.

Recovery
- Each tiny particle of GL3 is 20 times smaller than regular glutamine powder. This allows for ultra-fast absorption and utilization.
Glutamine represents over 63% of the amino acid content in the amino acid pool of muscle tissue. Intense training and exercise put greater demands on your body for glutamine, making it a conditionally essential amino acid.
Glutamine is the most common amino acid in the body and is key to the metabolism and maintenance of muscle tissue. Glutamine is also the highest concentrated amino acid in the muscle cell and acts as a primary shuttle for nitrogen from the bloodstream to inside the muscle cell. Glutamine has a multifaceted role in human nutrition and is essential for the support of muscle tissue and immune function.
