Multiple studies have proven glutamine’s ability to speed recovery after surgery. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, but deficiencies can occur during metabolic stress. Glutamine is the preferred fuel for the sensitive, fast-growing cells that make up your gastrointestinal (GI) tract as well as your immune system. People who should not use Glutamine are those with end-stage liver or kidney disease where all excess protein must be avoided.
