Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and plays an important role in muscle protein development. During prolonged periods of intense exercise, glutamine levels may be depleted faster than the body can replenish them, which limits protein synthesis and can even encourage muscle breakdown.
Supplemental L-Glutamine may help reduce muscle soreness and rebuild muscle tissue, and ON's Glutamine Powder is a simple way to do so. Just one teaspoon of Glutamine Powder provides more glutamine than 5 jumbo eggs, 110g of lean beef, 3/4 cup of soybeans, or a chicken breast. Better yet, Optimum Nutrition Glutamine Powder is unflavoured and it mixes easily, so that it can be added right into your protein, meal replacement and weight gainer shakes.

- A must for heavy trainingReview by gareth (3 December 2013)
- i take this with my post training shake. Helps with incredible recovery times. Does not matter how hard i push myself i am always feeling strong the next day.
- Must haveReview by Dominic (12 February 2012)
- I trust O.N with my life. This product works like a charm. tasteless so I mix it with juice. Pricey due to it high quality as is the case with all O.N products. I take it before my workouts as its not bulky so you do not utilize energy on digestion whilst training. If BCAA'S and Glutamine are part of your supplementation I personally recommend only O.N as others I have tried used fillers (i.e starch powder) to make it look like youre getting more protein whilst actually cheating you.
