Micronized GL3 L-Glutamine: Increase Recovery Time
GL3, 2-Aminoglutaramic Acid, is a pure L-Glutamine supplement
in crystalline powder form. Glutamine has become more prominent as new
studies reveal its unique contribution to protein synthesis (muscle growth),
anti-proteolytic (prevents muscle tissue breakdown) functions and growth hormone
elevating effects.
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, pharmaceutical grade
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 anabolic hormone. The most
important anabolic hormone! It regulates the metabolic processes (including
protein synthesis) in almost all tissues throughout the human lifespan. Growth
hormone provokes several anabolic 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.
A New Study In The 'American Journal Of Clinical Nutrition' Is Set To
Shock The Sports Nutrition World!
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 your ass it is. With GL3
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 anabolic
activity of increased glucose and amino acid uptake, improve whole body nitrogen
retention, and increase lean tissue protein accrual. Supplementing with GL3
L-Glutamine may just be the most effective way of assisting new muscle
growth!
