Why are companies still selling standalone Glutamine and not MGG? Only a couple companies have this sold part of their glutamine blend.

Chelated minerals are the most bioavailable forms. As the amino acids they are bonded to get absorbed much easier than other carriers. It's like how Vitamin D3 is commonly suspended in some sort of oil containing softgel.

I understand why they are good. What I am trying to understand is, when we have something that shows a lot of promise, why people still chase behind novel ingredients which may or may not work.
