StillMass Glutamine regenerative nutritional supplement, 500 g
Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid, which means that the human body can produce (synthesize) it itself. It is formed by the metabolic transformation of glutamic acid. It is an important part of proteins, especially muscle proteins, in which it represents up to 60% of all amino acids.
Purpose: Suitable for increased physical performance. Glutamine is the most represented amino acid in muscle cells - up to 60%. Its high consumption occurs during physical and mental exertion. It is necessary for the construction of white blood cells, improves the immune system and regeneration of the organism, increases the level of growth hormone, helps with the growth of muscle mass. It increases glycogen reserves, thus ensuring the protection of muscle proteins. It contributes to the absorption of nutrients from food.
- The most glutamine is produced in the muscles, up to 90% of the total synthesis of glutamine, the rest in the liver. It is one of the 20 proteinogenic amino acids and is therefore indispensable for the proper functioning of proteosynthesis. It partially helps to increase the level of growth hormone, which is important for the growth of muscle mass. After physical exertion, it accelerates regeneration and prevents loss of muscle mass.
- Glutamine has a stimulating effect on the synthesis of glycogen and increases its reserves not only in the liver, but also in the muscles. Glycogen losses occur primarily after heavy physical exertion, or after sports activity and based on several studies, supplementation with glutamine can lead to the restoration of glycogen reserves in the muscles.
- It helps detoxify the body from harmful ammonia and thus maintains an optimal nitrogen balance. Mainly in the central nervous system and in the brain it is important to maintain a low level of nitrogen. During the metabolic transformations of amino acids, a significant amount of nitrogen is produced, and this is where glutamine comes to the rescue, absorbing and transporting nitrogen to the liver, where it is "detoxified".
- It helps maintain the proper function of the intestinal barrier. It is considered a basic source of energy for the cells of the small intestine (enterocytes), which mediate the absorption of nutrients into the blood. It stimulates the blood flow in the stomach, maintains the proper integrity of the intestinal mucosa, acts preventively against the atrophy of the villi of the small intestine, the transfer of bacteria and the development of inflammatory processes.
- The correct function of the digestive system is closely related to the strengthening of the body's overall immunity. In general, glutamine improves the immunocompetence of cells by promoting the synthesis of cellular proteins of the immune system, aiding the proliferation of lymphocytes (white blood cells) and the production of cytokines (signaling molecules produced by immune cells).
- Glutamine is also a precursor for the formation of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which acts as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and plays an important role in regulating brain activity and muscle tone in the body. Due to this fact, glutamine strengthens cell-mediated immunity and has anti-stress effects.
