Supplements are not only a helpful tool to gain muscle mass but can
often be essential for maintaining good health. Frequently, even a
Varied, healthy diet plan cannot replenished lost vitamins, minerals,
essential fats and so forth from arduous muscle building
routines.
Glutamine
Glutamine is the most common amino acid in the skeletel muscles making
up approximately two thirds of all the free-form amino acids.
The function of primary importance for those undergoing a fitness
regime, particularlly those doing weightlifting routines, is that
glutamine deters
muscle catabolism (breaking down of the muscles) as it increases
protein sysnthesis.
Catabolism (A Muscle Builders Biggest Enemy!) can happen if
the body is not producing or consuming enough protein and L-glutamine
from foods. Intense exercise can very quickly burn the body’s free
glutamine. Glutamine can also help to speed up muscle recovery.
Glutamine is generally taken in powder form and can be mixed with your
protein shake.
Most health food or supplement stores should stock this product. Be
sure to check the ingredients and consult with the sales clerk to
ensure that it contains only glutamine.
A great L-Glutamine product is
Optimium Nutrition's L-Glutamine. 200 servings per tub for $25 can’t go
wrong here!
Muscle Builders can benefit by taking ten grams of L-glutamine before
bed to prevent catabolism that often occurs during the long hours we
fast from sleeping.
There are no side effects associated with L-glutamine, because it is a
nutrient naturally occurring in the body. Reports of an upset stomach
are associated with ingesting a great deal of glutamine, using smaller
doses is recommended if this occurs.
