Glutamine by EHP Labs

EHP Labs Glutamine 500G is the most abundant amino acid found in muscle cells, comprising over 60% of skeletal muscle. Among 20 amino acids, glutamine provides the most versatility in amino acid metabolism and immune function and plays a vital role in intestinal health. However, glutamine needs can often be greater than its ability to produce it; adequate intake and supplementation can be of great benefit.

ENHANCES IMMUNITY & OPTIMISES INTESTINAL HEALTH

Glutamine is highly utilised by the immune system as it is essential for immune cell proliferation and function. Various factors, such as increased physical activity, can reduce levels of circulating glutamine, therefore making these individuals more susceptible to illness. L-glutamine has also been shown to support immune system function through inhibition of inflammatory responses. As a support, glutamine supplementation has been shown in various studies to increase glutamine concentrations and support the immune system.

Glutamine also plays a major role in digestive health. This is because the gut is where glutamine is mostly metabolised. Glutamine is responsible for helping repair and maintain gut barrier function of the small intestines. Glutamine also helps protect the intestines from damage and injury. As a support, glutamine supplementation can help improve gut health and even help reduce symptoms and severity of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and digestive issues commonly associated with celiac disease.
