L-Glutamine

• Stress management and immunity strengthening
• Improves muscle development
• Supports the immune system during times of stress
• Reduces intestinal permeability, or “sieve gut”
• Available in capsules and powder, at an effective dose

L-glutamine is an amino acid essential for various vital functions, including the optimal functioning of the kidneys, pancreas, gallbladder, liver, small and large intestines, and brain. It is the most important of all amino acids involved in maintaining nitrogen balance in the body; it is involved in the synthesis of proteins, which are just as important as it is for building muscle. L-glutamine stimulates the production of human growth hormone (hGH), also essential for building muscle, as well as maintaining youthful cellular function.

The importance of L-glutamine for the proper functioning of the immune system is twofold: it directly supports the immune system during times of stress through its ability to promote the production of glutathione, which is a powerful antioxidant, and indirectly by reducing intestinal permeability or "sieve gut," which prevents undigested particles from accessing the blood and potentially leading to hyperactivity and allergies.

AOR's L-Glutamine provides an effective dose of this important nutrient to prevent problematic low levels and improve overall health. It is available in capsule and powder form for convenient use.
