L-Glutamine
Your Body's Favorite Amino Acid?

---

During periods of high level stress such as weight lifting and doing high intensity cardio, the body may not produce sufficient amounts of L-Glutamine, and because of this, supplementation may be a great decision for maintaining a positive nitrogen balance, or in other words, will help keep your body in an anabolic state.

The body may require more glutamine than it can produce during high levels of training. Using L-Glutamine can help maintain muscle, and allow for more muscle to be built.

Best when used after your workouts and before bedtime, both are great times to take it because these are the periods of the day where the body undergoes most of its repair and recuperation.

* Extra notes and insight

Glutamine comes in pill and powder form. I personally prefer the powder form (it's virtually tasteless). You can take this amino acid right after your workouts, mix it with a protein shake, and you're good to go...

I've experienced great results using this product, and highly recommend it if you are training really hard and want to ensure that your body continues building muscle under extreme conditions.

You can find this product from many retailers, but buying this product online is your best option because you'll most likely be saving money.
