Yamamoto® Nutrition Glutamine POWDER is a supplement based on pure L-Glutamine powder. Glutamine POWDER is a Glutamine-based supplement, indicated for athletes who perform physical activities that require intense muscular effort.

What is Glutamine POWDER? Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid present in the blood, and in detail it is a non-essential amino acid, i.e. it can be produced by our body autonomously. Despite this, its lack of food can lead to both physical and mental fatigue. Its integration can therefore become important in some situations, among these after intense physical training when our body needs support for recovery and fatigue. Despite being a non-essential amino acid, its presence in the right quantities is essential for the functioning of the nervous system, it is involved in digestive processes and seems to improve liver and immune functions. In sports, intestinal or gastric disorders can lead to declines in performance, athletic performance and even body composition (if we evaluate the medium / long term).

Glutamine is useful for the resynthesis of glycogen without raising insulin levels: glycogen is essential for carrying out physical activity, and following intense and long-lasting workouts it is necessary for the body to restore used stocks. Glutamine is also known for its anti-catabolic benefits: being an amino acid, it stimulates protein synthesis while limiting muscle catabolism, and thus allowing to protect the skeletal muscle even in the face of demanding performances. In the field of Bodybuilding, it can be useful in the mass phase to support intestinal health (which can be put at risk by taking very high caloric intake) but also in the definition phase, to stimulate muscle glycogen synthesis and counteract the catabolism. Benefits of our supplement Why choose Glutamine POWDER? Amino acid mostly present in skeletal muscle; Supports cellular hydration; Anti-catabolic function; Supports glycogen resynthesis; It has no effect on insulin levels.

When and how to take it: dissolve one scoop (5 g) in water or any other beverage of your choice, during the day or after physical activity. If taken post-workout it supports the synthesis of muscle glycogen. For general anti-catabolic use it can be taken both after a workout or divided into several rations during the day.
