Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid in the body, is an important constituent of proteins and participates in many key metabolic processes.* Glutamine helps to regulate acid/base balance, maintains nitrogen balance, and acts as a nitrogen reservoir for the production of other amino acids.* It also serves as an important energy source for certain cell types, such as gut, immune, and kidney cells.* Glutamine is known to support gastrointestinal integrity, normal immune system function, and the preservation of muscle tissue.* Protocol For Life Balance® L-Glutamine Powder is a pure, free-form, non-essential amino acid.
