The amino acid glutamine provides a form of nutrition to your immune system and intestinal cells, thereby preventing muscle loss. Glutamine also produces bicarbonate, which has been recognized for its muscle-preserving effects. Like creatine, glutamine also has a cell-volumizing effect, helping muscle cells stay swollen when glycogen and insulin levels are low. By stuffing muscle cells with water, glutamine helps them stay stretched and tight, which prevents protein-destroying enzymes from switching on and devouring muscle. Glutamine can also cause growth hormone (GH) release, and helps keep muscle-building processes humming along.
