the benifits of glutamine

Lately I have been researching the benefits of a substance called glutamine. Glutamine is an amino acid (natural building block for proteins) which helps to distribute the proteins throughout your body. Glutamine is also the most abundant amino acid in the body making up about 60% of skeletal muscle. The substance is a source for fuel for your body which can increase your energy this not only helps you build protein, but also provides more energy for your lifts. After lifting glutamine is a necessity.The body is depleted of this amino acid and if it is not replenished recovery, strength, and stamina as prolonged. After finding out this information I tried out the product and found it did have some very crucial benefits. Before I started taking glutamine I would be sore for a 2-3 day period. The soreness was due to the fact that lifting causes micro tears. These micro tears after a while re-heal and make your muscles stronger. Mine were just simply not healing quick enough. Immediately after starting to take glutamine I noticed a difference in muscle recovery, my 2-3 day recovery period went to being 1-2 days instead. In lifting this is a big benefit because I was no longer sore when working the same muscle group after a two day break. Because of these effects I'm hoping to see some gains coming soon I will continue to post progress.
