Description L-Glutamine

The information in the FAQ section was created by the Liki24.co.uk team and is based on the official manufacturer's manual

L-glutamine is an amino acid, the most abundant in the human body, accounting for more than 60% of all amino acids in the body. L-glutamine is produced in the muscles and transported to the rest of the body through the bloodstream.

L-glutamine can be purchased in various forms, such as powder, capsules, tablets or drops, as a single substance or in combination with other active substances.

Does L-glutamine have any benefits?

L-glutamine is one of the few amino acids in the human body that contains two nitrogen atoms, with most amino acids containing only one atom. For this reason, L-glutamine is essential in the post-operative recovery process, as it promotes wound healing and proper organ function, with nitrogen being used by tissues to repair themselves. The human body uses L-glutamine to produce glucose and other amino acids.

L-Glutamine benefits:

L-Glutamine administration can reduce the migration of bacteria from the intestine and wound infection after surgery;
L-Glutamine increases the body's resistance to infection and is an adjuvant to the body in rapid recovery from prolonged illness;
L-glutamine has been shown to reduce inflammation and ulceration in the mouth in patients undergoing chemotherapy; however, caution is advised when administering L-glutamine to these patients;
L-Glutamine improves resistance to physical exertion and reduces the feeling of muscle fever, and is often used by people who engage in intense physical activity;
L-Glutamine is converted in our body into glutamate, a neurotransmitter in the human brain, which plays an important role in improving memory and learning.

Does L-Glutamine have any side effects?

Adding an L-Glutamine supplement to your diet may cause some mild side effects. The most common side effects of L-Glutamine include coughing and changes in bowel movements. Start with small doses to allow your body to adjust to the supplement, but talk to your doctor if the discomfort is severe or does not go away, as you may have an intolerance/allergy.

What are the contraindications and warnings for L-Glutamine?

L-Glutamine should not be taken by pregnant or breastfeeding women.

L-Glutamine should not be administered to people with kidney failure, liver failure or people suffering from bipolar affective disorders.

Caution is also recommended when administering L-Glutamine to people undergoing antitumour or anticonvulsant treatment at the same time.

It is recommended to consult a doctor before administering L-Glutamine to people diagnosed with alcoholic cirrhosis.

How is L-Glutamine administered?

Since L-Glutamine can be found in many forms and concentrations, you should carefully read the instructions on the product leaflet before purchasing.

For example, L-Glutamine 1000mg 60 tablets from Cosmopharm is recommended to be taken 1 coated tablet 1-2 times a day on an empty stomach after exercise.

In the case of L-glutamine force 300 g, from Gold Nutrition, to prepare a dose, use the measuring spoon included in the package (5.5 g) in a glass of water, shake well and serve. One dose per day is recommended, usually after training.
