Glutamine
What is Glutamine?
This has been called the "King" of Amino acids. L-glutamine powder is best known among bodybuilders for being anti-catabolic. That means it prevents muscles from suffering tissue breakdown after hard exercise, thus resulting in faster recuperation. It also has an anabolic effect by creating a positive nitrogen balance in cells, which assists in the utilization of protein. This means speedier muscle tissue repair and rebuilding.
Glutamine supplement powder, taken with a lot of water, has a "volumizing" effect on muscle cells. By increasing cell volume, more nutrients can enter. Increased cellular volume also results in an anabolic effect by sending signals turn on protein synthesis within the cell. After workouts, glycogen is depleted. Glutamine supplement increases the amount of glycogen synthesized in the liver and muscles, making muscles larger and fuller.
