Premier Glutamine delivers L-glutamine (free form) that is derived from beneficial bacteria (not synthetically made). Glutamine is a key amino acid that supports muscle and gastrointestinal tract health while also promoting intestinal mucosa health.* The intestines are supported by healthy glutamine levels. Glutamine serves as a critical source of energy for intestinal cells, which help to maintain the barrier between the intestines and the rest of the body.* This barrier prevents bacteria or toxins from leaking from the intestines into the rest of the body.* Additionally, glutamine is necessary in the production of glutathione, a key liver nutrient which prevents damage to important cellular components such as free radicals, peroxides, and heavy metals.*

Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid in the body and one of the few which can cross the blood-brain barrier, plays an important role in biological functions including protein synthesis.* Research has shown that glutamine supports the preservation of muscle mass so it may be helpful in post-exercise recovery.* During catabolic states or stress, as in post-exercise, it supports muscle recovery and glycogen reloading.*
