BPS-Pharma This Glutamine 300g

The use of glutamine can be useful not only in relation to sport. When it comes to the immune system or even injuries, glutamine or L-glutamine also seems to have a variety of uses. Because this is a much-discussed topic and there are very different opinions on it, we would like to provide the most important information about the amino acid here. This makes the purchase decision much easier, among other things.

Application and dosage

The application is particularly easy and should always be carried out according to the manufacturer's recommendations. This is the only way to ensure that there are no side effects. L-glutamine is available in most supplements - which is also always used in clinical studies. A distinction can be made between L-glutamine capsules and products in powder form. Although a balanced diet generally adequately covers your glutamine needs, during periods of high stress (such as after an illness or operation), it may be worthwhile to take supplements and contribute to a normalized glutamine balance. It can be used and taken for this purpose, among other things:

• To support intestinal health
• For faster healing of injuries
• For supporting the immune system
• To improve your own endurance
• To delay fatigue during training

What exactly is the dosage? It is recommended to get the right dose of L-glutamine once or twice a day. This helps to avoid experiencing a glutamine deficiency even if the diet is not very well thought out and to avoid possible disadvantages for the immune system, the intestines and also muscle regeneration. In the studies mentioned, dosages of 3.5g of glutamine up to 30g daily were tried - and no side effects were mentioned. Even a dosage of 60g does not appear to have caused any disadvantages in studies. Those who eat a balanced diet usually take in a lot of five to ten grams of glutamine daily to yourself - therefore this amount can also be optimally targeted when dosing supplements. Anyone who does intensive sports and is exposed to high levels of stress in everyday life can also increase this amount. After an operation, amounts of more than 30g per day also seem to make sense - but these should be discussed with the treating doctor. If you want to take glutamine specifically for sports, you can take three to five grams 30 minutes before the actual workout. Otherwise, five to ten grams spread over the day (in several doses) are completely sufficient to cover the basic requirements. If the glutamine is only to be used after the intensive training session, up to 20g can be taken - but this should be done in conjunction with carbohydrates for the optimal effect.
