Extended Info
free-form amino acids for maximum absorption. Amino acids are used by the body to build proteins. Proteins are essential for the formation of cells and are also involved in the biochemical structure of hormones, enzymes, neuro-transmitters and antibodies. Individually, amino acids also possess a vast array of properties.
Glutamine is particularly important for the health of the gut with the cells of the gut lining obtaining much of their growth material through utilising glutamine as a fuel. This is why, out of the 20 amino acids, glutamine, is often referred to as the ‘gut restorer’ amongst practitioners.
Large quantities of glutamine are stored in our muscles where it plays an important role in repairing and building new muscle. Heavy training can deplete our glutamine stores so a supplement may help speed recovery.Lamberts amino acids are presented in their natural ‘L’ free-form, which means that they are ready to be absorbed and used by the body.
