L-Glutamine 1000 mg from Solgar tablets is one of the highest quality products in Solgar's range of amino acids. Contains L-glutamine, an amino acid present in the body's muscles . Solgar's L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid and is found in high amounts in muscle. In fact, approximately 60% of the total amount of muscle amino acids is glutamine. It is classified as a non-essential amino acid (i.e. it can be produced by the body) but, since it serves as fuel for the muscles, in certain situations the demand for glutamine increases and the body is not able to produce enough. For example, during intense exercise, glutamine reserves are depleted because the body is under stress and muscles and tendons need greater amounts of this amino acid. In this case, to reduce muscle destruction, it is necessary to obtain glutamine through the diet. Natural sources of glutamine are beef, fish, cottage cheese, asparagus and broccoli.
