Peak Glutamin 500 g.

Semi-essential amino acid glutamine is involved is one of the most important amino acids for athletes and for its numerous effects on muscle building, regeneration, vitality and health.

This glutamine powder is absorbed much faster than pure glutamine through the implementation of B-Vitamins.

What can I expect from glutamine?

Glutamine is a highly concentrated amino acid complex, well absorbed thanks to the addition of D-pinitol and piperine, and has positive effects on regeneration, muscle volume and on the immune system. The overall effects depend on your eating habits and use of additional supplements (such as protein, highly glycemic carbohydrates, and creatine).

A constant supply of amino acids and glutamine is important for muscle and strength gains. Glutamine compensates the material losses during the training, inducing muscle building process and strengthening the immune system.

For a sufficient and constant supply of amino acids, take fast proteins (especially in the morning, before and after training) and slow proteins so that the strong but short anabolic/anti-catabolic effect of glutamine isn’t degraded but supported.

Function and impact:

Glutamine transports other amino acids to muscle cells, thereby assisting on building muscle cell structure (nitrogen shuttle function) making glutamine popular among athletes.

Glutamine regulates the water balance in muscle cells, similarly to creatine, resulting in an increase of muscle volume. Besides the obvious aesthetic advantage this also has an effect on creating a very beneficial environment for muscles.

Glutamine also has beneficial effects on hormonal levels modulating the secretion of insulin, of HGH (growth hormone) and anabolic hormones in general. Moreover, glutamine regulates levels of cortisol, which is very helpful for very intense workouts, diets and other stressful situations where body produces the stress hormone corisol. Regulation of cortisol helps muscle building, fat burning, regeneration, and overall well-being.

In addition, glutamine has positive effects on general health, especially the immune system and mental capacity (brain capacity)

Glutamine is extracted from protein formulas and synthesized from endogenous BCAAs. Therefore a high protein diet, supplementation with BCAAs and an adequate supply of glutamine is very important.

Particularly problematic is the supply during training because glutamine is consumed in high quantities as a co-substrate for energy and can quickly reach very high levels. A high consumption of Glutamine during training penetrates the liver and then is transported into extracellular muscle tissue. Studies have shown that BCAAs taken orally have the same effects as glutamine. Glutamine powder is placed under the tongue where it should stay as long as possible where it will increase glutamine levels by up to 50%.

To improve the penetration of glutamine into muscle, it is enriched with D-pinitol, which has insulin-like characteristics. D-pinitol sends similar signals as insulin to muscle cells, helping them to include supplied nutrients and/or glutamine. We also added piperine, which increases the bioavailability and digestion time of glutamine by up to 300%.
