Glutamine in 2017

[8 INCH not biceps]

i got some bcaa, not sure when to take it

 

This is another waste of money, if you are eating plenty of protein then your body already has all the bcaas it needs

if you're a believer in "Leangains," take 'em before fasted training.

Why Glutamine rather than BCAAs?

You need both.

Im running a MCT oil / Glutamine / Vandal Sulfate/ desiccated liver stack now, sick gains!

sorry bro but most of that is pissed out into the toilet, you could open your wallet take out 20 bucks and flush it down the toilet pretty much the same thing.

I feel it aids in gut health, recovery, helps keep my immune system healthy, plenty of bcaa's in chicken, beef, fish, eggs..not to mention all the artificial sweeteners.

Over the counter supplements aren't really that expensive, they add to my health and fitness, and hardly put a dent in my net worth.

Athletes

Athletes who train for endurance events (like marathons) may reduce the amount of glutamine in their bodies. It is common for them to catch a cold after an athletic event. Some experts think that may be because of the role glutamine plays in the immune system. For this select group of athletes, one study showed that taking glutamine supplements resulted in fewer infections. The same is not true, however, for exercisers who work out at a moderate intensity.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)

Glutamine helps protect the lining of the gastrointestinal tract known as the mucosa. For that reason, some researchers believe that people who have IBD (ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease) may not have enough glutamine. However, two clinical trials found that taking glutamine supplements did not improve symptoms of Crohn disease.

As you can see glutamine is a waste of money for a bodybuilder and you taking it for gut health would be like a person with no pain taking a painkiller.

Don't worry about it, with your level of intelligence, you'll never be a billionaire.

I'm not a bodybuilder, I train like an athlete, I run or swim every morning for an hour, I enjoy endurance athletics, when in Hawaii I surf/hike/paddle board...when it comes to lifting yes, I lift like a bodybuilder, but I expend a ton of calories from my cardio everyday, so I honestly feel and see what glutamine has done for me, now..if I was a bodybuilder just lifting once a day and maybe doing slow walking cardio, I might not incorporate glutamine in my diet, or atleast a lot less.

always a good thing to remember, saves a lot of embarrassing situations when interacting with "normal" people.

Rule of thumb.... When you stop taking somthing and nothing at all changes, chances are it does fuck all..

What a great advice.............I used to take all the bullshit supps there are out there and one day just stopped taking all of them............and guess what? nothing changed.........pre,intra, post, whey, creatine, etc...........nothing changed.....

training hard and taking protein = moron
hardly training at all and eating donuts = genius
