[Sci-Mentor] Glutamine

A substrate for DNA synthesis
Major role in protein synthesis
Primary source of fuel for enterocytes (cells lining the inside of the small intestine).
Precursor for rapidly dividing immune cells, thus aiding in immune function
Regulation of acid-base balance in the kidney by producing ammonium
Alternative source of fuel for the brain and helps to block cortisol-induced protein catabolism
As a form of fixed nitogen by heterocysts, exchanged for photosynthate from undifferentiated cyanobacterial cells

Sci-Mentor agree with researchers who also consider it absolutely vital that you consume glutamine before and after training , as your glutamine levels fall. It is important to keep a natural post training catabolic state.

At Sci-Mentor we call this ‘The Training Paradox’. When glutamine levels fall, a catabolic state exists and the body responds by robbing glutamine from other muscle groups. This is not ideal for maintaining balance and growth.

To avoid this deficiency, regular daily supplementation of glutamine will enable you to combat the catabolic effects that result from hard training.
