GLUTAMINE POWDER - 1 LB

The Benefits of NOW L-Glutamine Powder

NOW L-Glutamine Powder is a pure, free-form, non-essential, amino acid and is the highest grade available. Glutamine is considered to be a conditionally essential amino acid, which means that under certain circumstances, the body may require more glutamine than it can produce. In the body, glutamine functions as a major nitrogen transporter and is critical for the maintenance of healthy nitrogen balance.* Glutamine also acts as the primary fuel for the rapidly growing cells of the immune system and GI tract.* Supplementing with NOW L-Glutamine Powder can have many benefits, including supporting nitrogen transporter function and helping to maintain a healthy immune system.*

How Glutamine Supports Nitrogen Transporter Function*

As a major nitrogen transporter, glutamine plays an important role in maintaining healthy nitrogen balance in the body.* When the body is under physical stress (such as during exercise), glutamine levels may be depleted.* Supplementing with NOW L-Glutamine Powder can help to replenish these levels and support optimal nitrogen balance.*

How Glutamine Supports a Healthy Immune System*

Rapidly growing cells, such as those of the immune system and GI tract, have an increased demand for glutamine.* Glutamine also plays a role in immune function by supporting white blood cell production and activity.* Supplementing with NOW L-Glutamine Powder can help to support a healthy immune system by providing these cells with the fuel they need to grow and function optimally.*

In Summary:

NOW L-Glutamine Powder is a pure, free-form amino acid that has many benefits. As a major nitrogen transporter, glutamine helps to maintain healthy nitrogen balance in the body. Glutamine also acts as fuel for rapidly growing cells of the immune system and GI tract. Supplementing with NOW L-Glutamine Powder can help support optimal nitrogen balance and a healthy immune system.
