Highly recommended.----------------------------------OVERVIEW----------------------------------Glutamine is a staple in my supplemental regimen. There are numerous benefits backed by science. It is relatively an inexpensive supplement that should be a part of nearly everyone's supplement protocol.Glutamine is an amino acid (a building block for proteins), found naturally in the body.Glutamine is used to counter some of the side effects of medical treatments. For example, it is used for side effects of cancerchemotherapy including diarrhea, pain and swelling inside the mouth (mucositis), nerve pain (neuropathy), and muscle and joint pains caused by the cancer drug Taxol. Glutamine is also used to protect the immune system and digestive system in people undergoing radiochemotherapy for cancer of the esophagus. Additionally, glutamine is used for improving recovery after bone marrow transplant or bowel surgery, increasing well-being in people who have suffered traumatic injuries, and preventing infections in critically ill people.Some people use glutamine for digestive system conditions such as stomach ulcers, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s disease. It is also used for depression, moodiness, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, and enhancing exercise performance.----------------------------------HOW DOES IT WORK?----------------------------------Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Glutamine is produced in the muscles and is distributed by the blood to the organs that need it. Glutamine might help gut function, the immune system, and other essential processes in the body, especially in times of stress. It is also important for providing "fuel" (nitrogen and carbon) to many different cells in the body. Glutamine is needed to make other chemicals in the body such as other amino acids and glucose (sugar).

Heyy,I have been working out for some time now and int he past would mostly supplement my workouts naturally (eggs, milk, cottage cheese etc).However, whenever i would hit the gym with a vengeance the next day would go KABOOM on me.. zombieing around the town with my work getting affected.Essentially, the recovery from workouts was a real point of concern for me.Finally picked up the ON L-Glutamine (1 KG) along with BCAA's and gold standard whey protein (again by ON).Now, i have used ON whey in the past as a standalone supplement and i did see some muscle tone improvement through it but with the combination of Glutamine and BCAA's to it things have been great.First Impressions --You open the box and that smell damped my spirits in 1 go. Feels as if it was injected with the sewer fragrance (if you can call it that) :D . Jokes apart, mixes in water well although a bit of grit is left in the cup once you drink it (add some more water, shake and it all gets washed down the throat).taste is fairly decent (manageable).Observations --I have been taking it for more then a month now (early morning and before bedtime). the bowel movement is definitely impacted for one and becomes better for sure.My muscle tone and definition has improved quite a bit and recovery is awesome (although the BCAA's and whey would have some role in that too).Body immunity has somehow been impacted for the worse which is surprising (have a cold for almost 2-3 weeks now, very mild though).Additionally, i have started feeling hungry like crazy (earlier, could go on without food for 12 hrs or more (not good i know) without any issues but now the stomach is like a kitchen on fire asking for more fuel every 2 hours).All in all the effects have been beneficial for me and i would continue this for some time for now.Grievances --powder Smell.. impact on immunity (not sure of the reason though since glutamine improves immunity as far as i know).I checked that brands like NOW FOODS and BULK SUPPLEMENTS offer cheaper L-glutamine as against ON but then their authenticity is a matter of concern for me and hence i would want to stick to ON for the time to come.
