GL3
"Did You Know That Glutamine
is Solely Responsible For Over 35% of The Nitrogen
That Enters The Muscle?"
Product Information
GL3, 2-Aminoglutaramic Acid, is a pure L-Glutamine
supplement in crystalline powder form. Glutamine has
become more prominent as new studies reveal its unique
contribution to protein synthesis (muscle growth),
anti-proteolytic (prevents muscle tissue breakdown)
functions and growth hormone elevating effects.
Glutamine
provides a critical link in muscle metabolism not
shared by any other single amino acid, and GL3 makes
utilizing glutamine a realistic and effective endeavor.
GL3 is pure, pharmaceutical grade L-Glutamine in an
odourless and tasteless powder.
Glutamine
is the most abundant single amino acid in the blood
and in the intracellular free amino acid pool (most
abundant amino acid in muscle tissue). Glutamine represents
over 63% of the amino acid content in the amino acid
pool of muscle tissue. Glutamine’s unique structure,
containing two nitrogen side chains, consists of 19%
nitrogen - making it the primary transporter of nitrogen
into the muscle cell. In fact, glutamine alone is
responsible for 35% of the nitrogen that gets into
the muscle cell. Glutamine literally drives muscle
building nitrogen into the muscle cell where it is
synthesized for growth.
Glutamine
concentrations fall markedly after training and remain
low until complete recovery. What this means is, the
very rigors of weight training "leak" nitrogen carrying
glutamine from muscle tissue. This fall in glutamine
is catabolic to muscle tissue - "The Training Paradox".
Supplementing with glutamine spares free glutamine
in muscle tissue, counteracts the fall in muscle protein
synthesis, and improves nitrogen balance. Glutamine
overcomes "The Training Paradox".
You
train with weights to build muscle. The more intensely
you train, and the heavier the overload you subject
your muscles to, the greater the growth response will
be.
Glutamine
is a key factor in muscle growth, and controlling
the "skeletal muscle/whole body glutamine gradient"
is critical in maintaining and building muscle tissue.
The higher the muscle glutamine levels you can maintain,
the less chance you have of falling into catabolism
and the faster muscle will grow. But now there is
more . . .
We
all know growth hormone is an important anabolic hormone.
The most important anabolic hormone! It regulates
the metabolic processes (including protein synthesis)
in almost all tissues throughout the human lifespan.
Growth hormone provokes several anabolic actions on
skeletal muscle: the uptake of glucose and amino acids,
activation of muscle protein synthesis, suppression
of muscle protein catabolism, and the utilization
of body fat for energy.
Now
for the exciting news - In a recent release of the
prestigious American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,
the results of a study on glutamine revealed that
a single 2 gram oral dose of glutamine elevated circulating
growth hormone levels by over 430%! That’s right -
430%! With GL3 you’ll be able to effortlessly increase
your growth hormone levels by over 430%!
By
keeping a consistently high level of circulating growth
hormone, you are able to combat the catabolic effects
of weight training, harness the anabolic activity
of increased glucose and amino acid uptake, improve
whole body nitrogen retention, and increase lean tissue
protein accrual. Supplementing with GL3 L-Glutamine
may just be the most effective way of assisting new
muscle growth!
Intense
training and exercise puts greater demands on your
body's need for Glutamine - making it a conditionally
essential amino acid.
New
Micronized GL3 L-Glutamine represents a leap forward
in Glutamine supplementation. GL3 uses a state-of-the-art
Particle Micronization Technology (PMTTM).
Each tiny particle of GL3 is 20 times smaller than
regular Glutamine powder. This allows for ultra-fast
absorption and utilization.
Glutamine
is the most common amino acid in the body and is key
to the metabolism and maintenance of muscle tissue.
Glutamine is also the highest concentrated amino acid
in the muscle cell and acts as a primary shuttle for
nitrogen from the blood stream to inside the muscle
cell.
Glutamine has a multifaceted role in human nutrition
and is essential for the support of muscle tissue.
