Description
L-Glutamine is the most
abundant amino acid in your muscle cells. It is released from the muscle
during times of stress (such as intense weight training workouts) and
dieting. This amino acid not only has been shown to be a great
anti-catabolic agent (protects the muscle from the catabolic effects of
the hormone cortisol), but also a contributor to muscle cell volume, and
immune system enhancing properties. It acts in the following ways:
- Increases protein synthesis for enhanced muscle growth and recovery
- Accelerates glycogen synthesis after a workout
- Sparing effect on the glycogen stored in the muscle cells
- Provides faster recuperation from weight training workouts
- Decreases muscle protein catabolism, which is especially important during dieting
- Improves nitrogen retention in muscle tissue.
