Features & Benefits
HealthWise® L-Glutamine is a 100% pure pharmaceutical-grade amino acid powder designed to support gastrointestinal health, muscle recovery, immune function, tissue repair, and recovery during periods of increased physiological stress. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the bloodstream and is considered a conditionally essential amino acid, meaning that under normal conditions the body can produce sufficient amounts, but during periods of illness, injury, surgery, infection, trauma, or intense exercise, demand may exceed production.
The product is commonly used to support:
- Gastrointestinal and intestinal barrier health
- Gut repair protocols
- Immune system function
- Muscle recovery and exercise performance
- Post-surgical recovery
- Tissue repair and wound healing
- Recovery during periods of physical stress
