GLUTAMINE is one of the most abundant amino acids in the body and is a conditionally essential amino acid, meaning that the body is able to manufacture Glutamine on its own. During times of extreme stress (such as following an intense workout), however, the body is not able to produce enough and may benefit from supplemental Glutamine. ALLMAX Glutamine uses Glutamine crystals made from a natural fermentation process. This state-of-the-art process creates a unique, purified and isolated Glutamine ideal for supplementation.
