It is the most plentiful free amino acid in the body’s muscle tissue. L-Glutamine plays a very important role in protein metabolism, cell volumization and the decreasing of muscle breakdown (1, 2). Give your body the strength it needs with HIGH IMPACT™.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp class=\"style250\" style=\"text-align: justify\" align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eThe Extreme Anabolic Stimulator\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eGlutamine is known to promote anabolic conditions in muscle cells and increase the rate of protein synthesis. It was long thought that glutamine was indirectly responsible for this anabolic state. It now seems that glutamine indirectly promotes growth by increasing the hydration state of muscle cells. The amount of water in cells can change in a matter of minutes, going from being fully hydrated to a state of dehydration. It has been found that the amount of water inside a muscle cell can alter its metabolism, especially protein synthesis and turnover. When cells are swollen with water, this inhibits the breakdown of protein, glycogen and glucose and stimulates protein and glycogen synthesis. If a cell becomes dehydrated, it shrinks and goes into a catabolic state that breaks down the muscle’s vital proteins.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eWhen glutamine levels are high in muscle cells, this stimulates the entry of other amino acids into the cell. Amino acids cannot directly enter the cell but must be carried in by a special transport system. The unique thing about this system is that when it allows an amino acid to enter, it also allows sodium to enter. As the amino and sodium levels increase in the cell, this causes water to be absorbed across the membrane and the cell swells to an anabolic state. When glutamine levels are depleted during intense exercise the cells become dehydrated and enter a catabolic state.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eWhen a person trains intensely they will start depleting their muscle glutamine stores before they have fully recovered from their previous workout. The result is that each day the amount of muscle glutamine gets a little lower. The more a person trains, the more glutamine they use and the greater the catabolic response. People suffering from overtraining are also more susceptible to disease and infection as a result of lowered immunity. This may be due to the role of glutamine as a primary source of fuel for the immune system.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Verdana\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRECOMMENDED DOSE (ADULTS): \u003c\/strong\u003eTake one (1) scoop, once daily.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MVP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36668053522,"sku":"18916","price":23.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0408\/7649\/products\/s18916.jpg?v=1497967055","url":"https:\/\/parisnaturalhealthfoods.ca\/products\/mvp-high-impact-glutamine-powder-610g","provider":"Paris Natural Foods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
