Amino acids are used by the body to build proteins. Proteins are essential for the formation of cells and are also involved in the biochemical structure of hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters and antibodies. Individually, amino acids also possess a vast array of properties. Glutamine may be particularly important for the health of the gut with the cells of the gut lining obtaining much of their growth material through utilising glutamine as a fuel. Large quantities of glutamine are stored in our muscles where it plays an important role in repairing and building new muscle. Athletes undergoing heavy training can deplete their glutamine stores so it is possible a supplement may help speed recovery. Suitable for vegetarians. 500g powder.
