What is ETIXX L-Glutamine 300 gr ?

L-Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in human plasma and muscle cells. It is a semi-essential amino acid, which means that the body manufactures glutamine itself (mainly in muscle, liver, adipose tissue and the brain), but under certain circumstances (important physical effort, recovery) the exogenous supply glutamine may be beneficial. L-glutamine is also present in foods such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, legumes,...

Glutamine has numerous functions in the body: protein synthesis, muscle building, glycogen synthesis, immune function, intestinal barrier function, acid-base balance, ...

Amino acids, such as glutamine, are the building blocks of protein and protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. Glutamine supplies the muscles with nitrogen, among other things, and thus contributes to maintaining the nitrogen balance. This is beneficial for reducing muscle breakdown, promoting muscle recovery and protein synthesis.

Athletes, especially those with endurance or those who do very intense exercise, demand a lot from their bodies. Prolonged and very intense exercise is known to be associated with decreased intramuscular and plasma glutamine concentrations, which would be detrimental to immune function. Studies show, for example, that glutamine supplementation would reduce the incidence of disease in endurance athletes.
