Glutamine w/ ON Whey Protein

[pete997]

Is there any point in supplementing by nutrition intake with glutamine powder, if I'm already taking Optimum Nutrition's Whey Protein. ON contains 4082 mg/scoop of "glutamine and precursors."

And by the way, what does 'precursors' mean?

Precursors of glutamine is for example :glutamic acid that is converted in the liver to glutamine.

I agree......

I dunno. Glutemine helps your body absorb protein and can be really beneficial to people with bum joints.

 

[abear]

glucosamine is for joints.

glutamine is really only beneficial to those with digestive disorders or those with severe calorie restriction or those with HIV or burn victims.
