Description
L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in human plasma and muscle tissue, and is described as conditionally essential because requirements rise during physical stress. It is formulated extensively into sports nutrition and recovery products, and into clinical nutrition where gut and immune support are the formulation objective. The material is a white crystalline powder, soluble in water, with a mild taste that makes it easy to incorporate. Glutamine is not stable indefinitely in aqueous solution — it degrades over time, and more quickly with heat — so ready-to-drink and liquid formats need that behaviour designed around. It is often supplied instantised for dispersion.
