The Power of Micronized Glutamine in a Convenient,
Easy to Swallow Capsule
As more and more scientific studies are completed, the more glutamine's role
in muscle growth becomes apparent. Glutamine is usually taken in powder form
mixed into water or added to a protein shake or flavored drink. However, you
don't always have time to mix a drink. Even if it takes you just 5 minutes,
when you are busy and on the go those 5 minutes may be impossible to spare.
And with the studies showing glutamine's positive impact on elevating growth
hormone, you want to be able to take it with no fuse - easy and convenient.
New GL3 Micronized Glutamine Capsules gives you the multifunctional, muscle-building
power of pure glutamine in and ultra-convenient capsule form. One thing I've
learned from over 20 years of weight training and researching and developing
cutting edge sports nutrition supplements is that there is a balance between
convenience and effectiveness. This new micronized glutamine capsule strikes
the perfect balance. It gives you the simple convenience of a take anywhere-
anytime capsule while maintaining all the potent muscle-building effects that
micronized glutamine delivers. There is no compromise.
"Did You Know That Glutamine is Solely Responsible For Over 35%
of The Nitrogen That Enters The Muscle?"
Glutamine provides a critical link in muscle metabolism not shared by any other
single amino acid, and GL3 makes utilizing glutamine a realistic and effective
endeavor. GL3 is pure, micronized L-Glutamine in an odorless and tasteless powder.
Glutamine is the most abundant single amino acid in the blood and in the intracellular
free amino acid pool (most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue). It comprises
61% of the amino acid pool in skeletal muscle. Glutamine's unique structure,
containing two nitrogen side chains, consists of 19% nitrogen - making it the
primary transporter of nitrogen into the muscle cell. In fact, glutamine alone
is responsible for 35% of the nitrogen that gets into the muscle cell. Glutamine
literally drives muscle building nitrogen into the muscle cell where it is synthesized
for growth.
Glutamine concentrations fall markedly after training and remain low until
complete recovery. What this means is, the very rigors of weight training "leak"
nitrogen carrying glutamine from muscle tissue. This fall in glutamine is catabolic
to muscle tissue - "The Training Paradox". Supplementing with glutamine
spares free glutamine in muscle tissue, counteracts the fall in muscle protein
synthesis, and improves nitrogen balance. Glutamine overcomes "The Training
Paradox".
You train with weights to build muscle. The more intensely you train, and the
heavier the overload you subject your muscles to, the greater the growth response
will be.
Glutamine is a key factor in muscle growth, and controlling the "skeletal
muscle/whole body glutamine gradient" is critical in maintaining and building
muscle tissue. The higher the muscle glutamine levels you can maintain, the
less chance you have of falling into catabolism and the faster muscle will grow.
But now there is more . . .
We all know growth hormone is an important hormone. The most important
hormone! It regulates the metabolic processes (including protein synthesis)
in almost all tissues throughout the human lifespan. Growth hormone provokes
several actions on skeletal muscle: the uptake of glucose and amino
acids, activation of muscle protein synthesis, suppression of muscle protein
catabolism, and the utilization of body fat for energy.
Now for the exciting news . . .
In a recent release of the prestigious American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,
the results of a study on glutamine revealed that a single 2 gram oral dose
of glutamine elevated circulating growth hormone levels by over 430%! That's
right - 430%! Significant? You bet it is! With GL3 Micronized L-Glutamine you'll
be able to effortlessly increase your growth hormone levels by over 430%!
By keeping a consistently high level of circulating growth hormone, you are
able to combat the catabolic effects of weight training, harness the
activity of increased glucose and amino acid uptake, improve whole body nitrogen
retention, and increase lean tissue protein accrual. Supplementing with GL3
Micronized L-Glutamine may just be the most effective way of assisting new muscle
growth!
