How much glutamine a day?

[mattyfox]

How much glutamine should I be taking a day please?

 

[LeanEngineer]

I would say 5-10g is a sufficient amount per day.

None really, unless for gut health.

0g morning
0g Preworkout
0g Postworkout
0g Bedtime
Other than gut health, digestion, stomach lining, or ulcer repair. Its been proven for quite some time to be fairly useless for bodybuilding or performance.

I agree - I've used glutamine anywhere from 5-20g/day and never really noticed anything. It tastes pretty crappy, and I think you could invest the money better into something else.

Unless it is attached with alanine, skip it.

There’s nothing wrong with taking glutamine. It’s cheap, and it’s probably good for your gut health. (There’s some evidence that folks on low protein diets can experience illness because their gut gets low on glutamine, affecting its immune system.)
