Key Facts

L-glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid that becomes increasingly important during stress, illness, or intense physical activity
Supports the intestinal lining's structural integrity and helps maintain a healthy gut barrier
Plays a central role in immune cell function and muscle protein synthesis during recovery
Free-form powder and capsule options offer flexibility for different preferences and absorption timing

Ingredients

L-glutamine (free form), vegetarian capsules (cellulose, water), ascorbyl palmitate.

Why We Chose This

Your gut lining and immune system both depend heavily on glutamine, especially when your body is under physical or metabolic stress. This formulation uses free-form l-glutamine, which bypasses digestion and enters circulation quickly, making it particularly useful for those recovering from intense training or managing digestive sensitivity. The vegetarian capsule option and minimal ingredient list reflect a commitment to clean, research-backed support without unnecessary additives.

How do I take L-glutamine powder?

Consistency matters more than timing — taking it around the same times each day helps your gut maintain that supportive environment it needs.

Can I take L-glutamine powder with other supplements or medications?

L-glutamine is generally safe to combine with most supplements and medications, though it may interact with anticonvulsant drugs by potentially reducing their effectiveness. Always discuss your full supplement and medication list with your healthcare provider before starting L-glutamine.

Who might benefit from taking L-glutamine powder?

Athletes and active individuals benefit from L-glutamine's role in muscle recovery and maintenance during intense training. People managing digestive concerns or those recovering from surgery also find value in its support for intestinal integrity and tissue repair.

How long does it typically take to notice effects of L-glutamine powder?

Most people notice effects within 4 to 6 weeks of consistent daily use, though individual timelines vary based on your baseline levels and specific health goals. Since L-glutamine is stored in your muscles and released gradually, patience with supplementation typically yields the most meaningful results.
