Zec+ Glutamine Powder 500g Unflavoured

ZEC+ - Glutamine is one of the most important amino acids in the diet (especially active populations) involved in many bodily functions. Glutamine supplementation is particularly useful in hypercatabolic stress situations (recovery, injuries, calorie deficit), where glutamine deficiency often occurs. In the cases mentioned, glutamine must be supplied in the form of dietary supplements. The addition of glutamine in stressful situations, among other things, contributes to maintaining the normal function of the immune system.

L-glutamine is a proteinogenic amino acid and a building block of body proteins. L-Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid, meaning that glutamine can in principle be synthesized from Essential Amino Acids (EAAs), specifically BCAAs. However, during hypercatabolic stress states, transient glutamine deficiency can occur. Approximately 20% of free amino acids in the blood pool and over 60% of amino acids in muscle cells are in the form of glutamine, which speaks volumes for the importance of glutamine supplementation. ZEC+ Glutamine is also suitable for all vegans and vegetarians.

The amino acid glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscles. It is crucial for the rapid recovery of the muscles after training and for the recovery of the gastric mucosa and intestines. A healthy gut is critical to a strong immune system and overall health. Glutamine prevents catabolism or muscle breakdown, influences the increased secretion of growth hormones, strengthens the immune system and cell volume. Glutamine is important for the transport of nitrogen into the muscle cells. Glutamine supplementation increases the levels of free glutamine in muscle tissue, which prevents muscle protein consumption and improves nitrogen levels in the body.

Suggested use:
After exercise, dissolve 10 g of glutamine (1 level measuring spoon) in cold water.

Ingredients:
L-Glutamine (99%).
