Amino acids are used by the body to build proteins. Proteins are essential for the formation of cells, being also linked to the biochemical structure of hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters and antibodies.
Amino acids are classified as essential or non-essential. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized in the body and must be obtained through food, while non-essential amino acids, although very important for health, can be synthesized in the body and are therefore not classified as "essential" . LAMBERTS amino acids are presented in "free form", that is, they are ready to be absorbed and used by the body (they do not need to be digested).
Glutamine is the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acid in the body, and can be derived from glutamic acid, another member of the amino acid family. Both glutamine and glutamic acid can be found in protein-rich foods like red meat, nuts, and fish. Different tissues in the body have different requirements for L-glutamine, and the most avid consumers are the cells of the intestines, while the muscles are high producers of L-Glutamine.
LAMBERTS L-Glutamine powder is an easy and affordable way to supplement your diet with this fascinating amino acid; since the recommended dose is frequently 5 grams, an amount that we would find in 10 capsules. LAMBERTS L-Glutamine is a pure powder with a mild flavor that can easily be mixed into drinks or sprinkled on food.
