What is Glutamine?

Glutamine is a single-active amino acid supplement. Though the body makes glutamine, it is termed "conditionally essential" because requirements can outstrip supply during physiological stress.

How glutamine works — fuel for the gut and immune cells

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, and it has a special relationship with two fast-renewing tissues. The cells that line the gut (enterocytes) use glutamine as their preferred fuel — not glucose — so an adequate supply directly supports the integrity and renewal of the intestinal mucosa and barrier. Rapidly dividing immune cells draw heavily on glutamine too, and it is a substrate for the synthesis of glutathione, the body's principal intracellular antioxidant. After intense or prolonged exercise, muscle glutamine stores are depleted, which is the basis for its use in recovery.
