Review on Healthy Origins L Glutamine American Made Non GMO by Wendy Bengtson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Virtually tasteless; Very easy to use

Glutamine is a type of amino acid that boosts the immune system and prevents muscle breakdown after hard training. Whether you're feeling low or ready for an intense workout, Healthy Origins L-Glutamine will bring you great benefits. I recommend taking one scoop pre/post workout or before bed. I'm a long-distance runner and preventing muscle loss is a pretty big issue if you want to be a record runner. When glycogen, the main source of muscle energy, is depleted in your body after prolonged aerobic exercise, your body begins to use your muscles for energy and begins to break them down. This is something you want to avoid at all costs, as this is the point where you start to weaken with more movement. That's why you need an amino acid like L-Glutamine as a replacement. This product is virtually odorless and almost completely tasteless. This is a great benefit as I have tried a few products with L-Glutamine in the past but all had a distinctly bad taste and smell. This product is easier to swallow. Please note that this product is in powder form, not capsules. The powder is very fine, the texture is similar to corn starch. You can dissolve it in water or like me, take it straight out of the measuring spoon. This product is also suitable for vegans. This product will likely meet the needs of any health conscious athlete, even if you are very picky about what you consume. If you are a marathon runner, try this product immediately after your run and two hours after. The benefits are noticeable! You'll recover much faster than without it.
