When you do long exercises or endurance exercises, your muscles lose about 50% of glutamine, and this helps break down the body’s muscles.
Glutamine is one of the most abundant amino acids in muscle tissue and is found naturally in proteins and is classified as a semi-essential or essential amino acid. Its most important functions include post-exercise muscle recovery, reducing muscle breakdown, increasing endurance, and improving immune function. Improving the recovery process from side effects associated with chemotherapy such as diarrhea, mucositis, nerve pain or neuropathy and from intestinal surgery, or bone marrow transplantation, and reducing the risk of infection in some patients because it is the main source of energy and nourishment for your immune cells.
