What is Life Pro Glutamine Ajinomoto?

The L-glutamine is one of the amino acids (20 amino acids) that, together with the others, form the proteins. L-glutamine has several functions.

L-glutamine allows controlling the fatigue of the muscles by reducing the acids in them, such as lactic acid, which is involved in stiffness. This amino acid is important because it is also responsible for the synthesis of proteins; another function of L-glutamine is to prevent the degradation of muscle mass.

Life Pro Glutamine contains glutamine from Ajinomoto. The Life Pro Glutamine is made with the AJINOMOTO patent, the world's leading manufacturer of pharmaceutical grade amino acids. This patent guarantees the use of amino acids of very good and high quality, to recover from those intense workouts where you use strength and endurance and above all to avoid the catabolism of muscle mass.

The L-glutamine is a non-essential amino acid is that it can be synthesized in the body from other amino acids such as valine, isoleucine or glutamic acid, however it is considered a “ conditioned essential amino acid” or semi-essential since in conditions of physical or psychological stress, trauma, infection, intense training, etc., its consumption is higher than its synthesis: the body demands so much glutamine that it is not able to synthesize it in sufficient quantity.

Life Pro Glutamine Ajinomoto. is the ideal supplement for all those athletes who want to take care of their muscles, as it will provide an optimal recovery and muscle development.

Its formula prevents catabolism that occurs after intense physical exertion or overtraining, which produces the decomposition of damaged muscles and cells.

Properties of glutamine

Glutamine is one of the most abundant amino acids in muscle tissue. It is a precursor of the protein synthesis: due to the composition of this amino acid, one of its main functions is the transport of nitrogen in organs and tissues to carry out the functions related to different metabolic processes.

Contributes to prevent catabolism or loss of muscle mass. It is also involved in improving recovery after injuries.

The glutamine transports ammonia from the muscle to the liver to be disposed of.

If glucose stores are empty and energy is required, glutamine is transformed for use: it acts and is used as an energy substrate to carry out ATP resynthesis. Adequate levels can promote endurance in athletes. In high intensity training, it can contribute to improve performance, and decrease fatigue.

It has a great relevance in carrying out the synthesis of glutathione. Glutathione is a protein whose main function is to protect the cells, tissues and organs of our body. It is the most important antioxidant in the human body.

Glutamine is one of the precursor substances of glutathione, one of the most powerful antioxidants in the body. Because of this, it promotes the proper functioning of the immune system.

It is also involved in the performance of brain functions: glutamic acid functions as a neurotransmitter in the brain. Neurons use it as a transmitter substance, promoting mental activity and brain functions.

How to use

Take 3 to 6 grams before training and another dose before bedtime for better recovery.
