Muscletech Platinum Glutamine

REPLENISH PLASMA GLUTAMINE

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found in your muscles. Following heavy or prolonged exercise, it protects muscle tissue and helps support muscle growth.* It’s involved in many metabolic processes and is the principal carrier of nitrogen in the body – transporting nitrogen from organ to organ, which directly influences the balance of protein synthesis and protein degradation.* This role as a free nitrogen donor helps your muscles build the other amino acids they need to recover quickly.

SUPPORTS INCREASED CELL VOLUME, PROTEIN SYNTHESIS AND GLYCOGEN REPLENISHMENT

A volumized muscle is an anabolic muscle! Glutamine helps support increased cell volume and is necessary for leucine uptake, both of which are needed to turn on protein synthesis!* Protein synthesis is the key to building muscle and recovering quickly after training (Fumarola C, La MS, Guidotti GG, 2005. Amino acid signaling through the mammalian target of rapamycin [mTOR] pathway: Role of glutamine and of cell shrinkage. J Cell Physiol. 204:155-65.) Glutamine also helps support increased glycogen replenishment – another key component to improving recovery an increasing training frequency for more muscle and strength gains!
