Product Description: Gluten FreeNon-GMO LE CertifiedProducts that Support Emotional Regulation, Muscle and Immune System SupplementsPlant-Based Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid circulating in the blood and is stored in the musculoskeletal system. Glutamine is an amino acid utilized for a variety of essential functions. It is required for rapidly dividing cells, including those in the gut and immune system. It is also used as an energy source for mitochondria and is a precursor to the brain neurotransmitter glutamate. Glutamine is also required for optimal nucleotide biosynthesis and protein synthesis. Glutamine’s ability to stimulate glycogen synthase, an enzyme that controls the synthesis and storage of glycogen fuel in muscle and liver, may provide a mechanism by which glutamine supplementation promotes enhanced fuel storage. Glutamine is an important fuel for some immune cells, including lymphocytes and macrophages, which can exert specific immune-stimulating effects. People who exercise excessively may have reduced glutamine levels, which can stress the body and immune system. That's why supplementing with glutamine can be important for serious athletes, those experiencing muscle loss, or those who want to maintain optimal immune function even under extreme stress. Glutamine supplements rapidly increase cellular glutamine levels and glutamine stores in the muscles.
