Amino acid support for reducing alcohol cravings
(also reduces sugar cravings)
•
Rejuvenation of the mucus membranes, especially the intestines and stomach
•
Supports normal bowel movements; helps body overcome diarrhea
•
2 - 3 Vcaps at breakfast and lunch
·
though glutamine is wonderful for the intestinal lining, when
there is global inflammatory condition (i.e. neurodegenerative conditions
rheumatoid arthritis etc) the use of glutamine can initiate a spiraling out of
control neurotransmitter response yielding a further excito-toxic state and greater
free radical pathology thus driving further inflammation at the site.

Glutamine and the Immune System
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. Research shows that
glutamine, an important amino acid, can help support your immune system by
strengthening immunoglobulins, such as s-IgA, on your intestinal mucosal
lining. When this mucosal lining has adequate sIgA, bacteria cannot bind to
it; therefore, infection is less likely.
Secondly, glutamine can also help strengthen and increase the numbers of
certain white blood cells, called lymphocytes. This also helps to support
your immune system. Glutamine is considered an essential amino acid for
mucosal and intestinal integrity during times of stress and during chronic
illness.
Glutamine and Growth Hormone
Glutamine can be invaluable in influencing production of hGH. One study
demonstrated that taking glutamine could affect muscular protein synthesis
and circulating growth hormone levels. In this study, taking 2 grams of oral
glutamine daily caused a significant release (more than 400%) of growth
hormone in men. Although the growth hormone levels increased, the study did
not measure muscle mass changes or exercise enhancement.
Another study did show the anabolic and anticatabolic effects of glutamine as
it increased protein synthesis and inhibited protein breakdown. This finding
could mean that supplementing with glutamine could help enhance muscle growth
and improve athletic performance.
Glutamine is an essential amino acid with many effects on the body's systems.
It has been used to help support many body functions.
