Although glutamine is classified by nutritionists as a ’non-essential amino acid’, it is probable that no single amino acid has received as much attention in clinical nutrition research and increasingly this interest has spread to sports nutrition. Key Features: Glutamine is important for optimal muscle growth and adaptation. An amino acid that aids recovery when undertaking heavy training. Research has shown that glutamine levels are reduced in the body after heavy training and that it is related to the suppression of the immune system. These levels are low with athletes suffering from over training syndrome. It may also be a direct regulator of protein synthesis and regulation. If you are training hard and not using Rego, SIS suggest taking 5 g of glutamine right after a workout. Size: 250g powder.
