Alpha L-Glutamine 500 Grs

L Glutamine from Alpha Nutrition If there is a recovery supplement par excellence, it is undoubtedly glutamine. Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid, this means that our body can create it from other amino acids, but there are times when this amino acid becomes essential in our diet. Mexico

Promotes glycogen recovery: glutamine together with glucose recovered the level of glycogen in the liver and muscles more effectively than glucose alone, once glycogen reserves have been reduced or exhausted.
But also, contrary to the insulin elevations caused by glucose ingestion (which leads to a decrease in blood glucose levels), glutamine ingestion has no effect on insulin.
Promotes protein synthesis: studies have been carried out that show that an adequate intake of glutamine together with a well-designed diet rich in protein is the best way to protect muscle tissue.

For all these reasons, experts suggest taking, in addition to a well-planned meal, a glutamine supplement, since it can more effectively stimulate the resynthesis of muscle glycogen after sporting activity. 1 Bottle of L glutamine  

Likewise, it has been shown that ingesting glutamine with a glucose solution promotes the storage of carbohydrates, not only in the muscle but also in the liver. Regarding its action on body proteins, an adequate intake of glutamine through a well-designed high-protein diet is the best way to protect muscle tissue. However, in situations such as stress and intense training, it is necessary to prescribe supplements, although extra contributions must always be determined and prescribed by a professional.

We can only, or rather we usually, provide between 5 and 8% of the total protein intake in the diet, that is, no more than 8 g per day, so when needs increase, as we have already listed before, supplement with Glutamine can be beneficial to maintain or gain muscle mass and improve efficiency in recovery processes.
