L-Glutamine-primary fuel for the cells lining the small intestine.-promotes gastrointestinal and immune health.-pure glutamine powder facilitates taking a higher amount.-a nutrient that is essential for wound healing.-contains no preservatives, magnesium stearate, or other lubricants and diluents.Thorne provides L-glutamine in a convenient, cost-effective powder for ease of supplementation in large amounts.L-glutamine is the most prevalent amino acid in the bloodstream. But, under certain circumstances, the body's tissues need more glutamine than the amount supplied by diet and internal production. In times of metabolic stress, glutamine is released from the muscles into the bloodstream, where it is transported to the tissues in need. But glutamine concentration in the skeletal muscles can be affected by various insults, including injury, infection, prolonged stress, malnutrition, and the use of glucocorticoids. Research demonstrates glutamine supplementation may be of benefit to the needed structures and functions.In addition, as noted above, evidence suggests supplemental glutamine may provide benefit for gastrointestinal health, as well as support for wound healing, immune health, and nutrient support for individuals undergoing chemotherapy and radiation.Serving Size: One (3.8g) scoopServings Per Container: 89Amount Per Serving:L-Glutamine ... 3.8gThis product does not contain wheat, gluten, corn, yeast, soy, egg, dairy products, or artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors.
