Cabot Health Glutamine Pure 175g

Description

L-glutamine is a natural amino acid that is 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 important building block of protein. It has been categorised as a conditionally essential amino acid that is required in greater amounts during times of extreme stress, physical trauma, illness and muscle wasting. Glutamine Pure comes in a highly absorbable powder form and contains a whopping 5 grams of L-glutamine per teaspoon.

The benefits of L-Glutamine:

• Gut repair:rrThe cells in the small intestine use L-glutamine as their major fuelrrsource to promote healing. This amino acid may help to reducerrinflammation and repair the intestinal lining in those with leaky gut,rrfood sensitives and inflammatory bowel disease. In cases of leaky gutrr(intestinal permeability) there are gaps between the cells of therrintestinal lining that can allow toxins and food particles to leakrrthrough, which can cause inflammation. L-glutamine may help to bridgerrthe gaps between the cells to strengthen the gut lining.
• Muscle recovery:rrWhen L-glutamine is taken around the time of exercise, it may help torrfuel the muscle cells to reduce muscle fatigue and could improve musclerrrecovery. L-glutamine has been shown to stimulate muscle growth andrrrepair, particularly in cases of muscle wasting. Glutamine Pure may helprrthose who exercise regularly to boost performance.
• Improved immunity:rrL-glutamine is required for the production and division of immune cellsrrsuch as lymphocytes. These immune cells are responsible for fightingrroff bacteria to avoid an infection. Low levels of this amino acid haverrbeen associated with low immunity and increased risk of with L-glutamine may help to boost immunity.
• Wound healing:rrWhen the body gets an injury such as a burn, it releases cortisol (therrstress hormone) into the body. Cortisol can deplete L-glutamine storesrrand could increase the risk of infection. Studies have shown that thisrramino acid may help to support wound healing and prevent infections,rrparticularly after surgery or severe burns.
• Detoxification:rrL-glutamine helps to form glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant inrrthe body. L-glutamine is required for the liver detoxification pathwaysrrand helps to support the removal of toxins and waste products (such asrrexcess ammonia) from the body. This amino acid could be used as part of arrdetox regime.
• Brain health:rrL-glutamine is essential for the production of glutamic acid and GABA,rrwhich are important neurotransmitters in the brain. These brainrrchemicals are needed for healthy brain development and -glutamine could help to boost brain function and has been referred torras the “thinkers amino acid”.
• Supporting side effects of medical treatment:rrL-glutamine could be used to help support the side effects of somerrmedical treatments, such as chemotherapy.
