Allmax Glutamine - 100g

Cautions & Warnings: Consult a healthcare practitioner prior to use if you are following a low protein diet, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

GLUTAMINE - HELPS REPAIR & RECOVER FROM INTENSE TRAINING

It plays a role in the metabolism of protein while strengthening the immune system and supporting recovery. This important amino acid can help with the removal of lactic acid and prevent DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness). ALLMAX Glutamine uses Glutamine crystals made from a natural fermentation process. This state-of-the-art process creates a unique, purified and isolated Glutamine ideal for supplementation. It is the most abundant amino acid found in muscle tissue.

Diminish Muscle Catabolism

Glutamine also helps to diminish catabolism caused by an increase in the stress hormone cortisol, which is elevated during exercise. A recent study conducted on the effects of glutamine on the muscle found that it actually blocks the action of cortisol’s interference with muscle protein synthesis and repair. This study shows that glutamine can provide an anti-catabolic effect. It can minimize the amount of muscle breakdown and can be particularly helpful when consumed after working out, when catabolism is at its peak.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue and has recently been shown by research to increase the number of HSPs (Heat Shock Proteins). Aside from its well-known ability to help exercise recovery and boost immune function, it also helps to create new muscle tissue by increasing HSPs. It has also been shown to speed post-workout recovery by increasing the absorption of key electrolytes.

The Allmax Difference

Manufactured with the purest raw ingredients at a manufacturing facility. ALLMAX Nutrition fermentation derived Glutamine provides recovery after training and enhances the immune system, which can be compromised during intense exercise. ALLMAX uses a proprietary hyper-particulation process called GLUTASURE™ technology to minimize the particle size of the glutamine, creating a clean, white and extremely fine powder. This increases Glutamine suspension time in liquid and speeds absorption into the bloodstream. ALLMAX uses only the purest raw ingredients and is not heated or chemically treated.

WHAT IS GLUTAMINE?

Glutamine is one of the most abundant amino acids in the body. It is called a conditionally essential amino acid, meaning that the body is able to manufacture it on its own. But during times of extreme stress (such as following an intense workout), the body is not able to produce enough and may benefit from supplemental Glutamine. It plays a role in the metabolism of protein while strengthening the immune system and supporting recovery. This important amino acid can help with the removal of lactic acid and prevent DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness).

Where Does It Come From?

Glutamine is a precursor of Glutathione, an amino acid, which is naturally found in the body. It can be found naturally in beans, meats, fish, poultry and dairy products. ALLMAX Glutamine comes from a vegetable source.

Who Can Use It?

Glutamine is a natural supplement and can be used by anyone who may benefit from it. It is ideal for athletes and those who perform intense workouts, as it can help to speed up recovery and maintain muscle mass. However, it is also used in the hospital in extreme cases such as burn patients and those suffering from cancer to boost their immune system.

How Does It Help Me In The Gym?

Glutamine is an anti-catabolic agent, meaning that when taken after a workout it can help to repair muscle damage and promotes new muscle tissue growth. It has also shown a positive effect on the immune system. When you’re training intensely, your immune system may be weakened due to the stress on your muscles. It can help to boost your immune system and prevent you from getting sick, allowing you to continue training at your peak. Additionally, if you’re a competitor and dieting, it can provide a boost to your immune system during times of caloric restriction. It can also help to reduce stress during that time.

Are There Any Side Effects?

Glutamine is a natural supplement which can be found in the body. The only side effect reported for those who have tried it has been a stomachache, but this was when someone took an excessive amount. You should always read the label before starting any new supplement and never take more than the recommended amount.

When Should I Take It?

It’s best to take Glutamine immediately following a workout. This will help to speed up the recovery process. You can also take a serving right before going to bed.

Do I Need To Cycle Glutamine?

No, you don’t need to cycle Glutamine.

How Do I Take It?

Take 1 rounded teaspoon or scoop (5 g) in water or juice once daily. For training sessions and athletic events, take approximately 30 minutes prior to training and immediately after training to help prevent muscle tissue breakdown and aid muscle recovery.

Can I Mix Glutamine With My Other Supplements?

Absolutely! We actually suggest that you combine Glutamine with protein powder. We’ve found that it works very well with ISOFLEX protein powder. Taking this after your workouts will really help to increase muscle recovery and maintain your lean muscle mass.
