NSI L-Glutamine Powder 4,500 mg -- 2.2 lbs

Strengthen and defend yourself against fatigue and muscle tissue breakdown! Our new L-glutamine formulation now in a convenient powder! How Does L-Glutamine Powder Work? Generally, the concentration of glutamine in the blood is much greater than all other amino acids and is transported and metabolized in the majority of tissues. L-glutamine may help replenish the body after trauma and/or stress, and it may possess anti-inflammatory effects. Other benefits of glutamine include improved protein metabolism and stimulated growth hormone production. Our powder contains 4,500 mg of glutamine per serving. NSI L-Glutamine Powder is better because it:. Mixes easily with water or your favorite juice. May help enhance muscle recovery

"Other L-Glutamine Powders I have tried gave noticeable results...whereas this one makes me wonder if it is actually working.

Also other powders I have tried had barely any taste at all, this product changes te flavor of anything I add it too.

The price however cannot be beat...but I am not sure it's worth it to have a whole lot of bad tasting powder that makes me wonder if it's working or not...

So far the best I've tried is from Jarrow Formulas, but it is expensive.."

I've done extensive research on the need for & benifits of the ingredients, all get an A+. I'm older but still find time & need 4 exercise & good health. Only problem I have with it is no scoop came with it as promised, so I had to use another product scoop for it. This was an inconvience for me to get started taking it. Fantastic product! Thanks 4 a great job in creating this product. Celeste3"

"For the price and quantity, NSI offers a great and pure L-glutamine powder that can be added to any protein shake or flavored drink.
Taste is a bit off putting in H2O, but hardly noticeable in O.J. or Protein shake.
Great after long/intense workouts when the body's supply of Glutamine runs low.
You cannot do any better for the price. Very satisfied!"

But Besides That it is AMAZING!"

"There's nothing like L-Glutamine when it comes to bouncing back after a hard workout. A couple of scoops in your favorite post drink and you're recovery-ready for the next workout.
NSI's L-Glutamine is great.........odorless, tasteless, effective and of course the cost is reasonable.
...BEST RIDE ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY!"

"I was originally concerned when purchasing this item, because 1) it was unbelievably cheap and 2) there was a review that cited a strange smell from this Glutamine supplement, and therefore questioned its purity. In the end, I decided it was cheap enough to risk, and am glad I did. I will agree that there is a faint smell (perhaps due to the giant neck and therefore opening of the bottle... ), but the product has the same faintly-sweet taste of all other glutamine supplements I've ever had, and dissolves just as clearly. I suppose the only way to tell for sure is to send it to a lab to analyze..."

"for me a great overall well being. I tax my body with daily stresses such as weightlifting. This amino acid is consumed the most by the body. I also feel it helps keeps me from catching the common cold as I tend to get to get sick easy by being exposed to other people with the cold. The price is right too. Check out other name brands pricing! I'm good with NSI."

"I always get a smile on my face when I compare prices on this stuff with the l-glutamine in retail stores... it seems everyone is always trying to rip you off. Overall this product works great, good for muscle maintenance and faster recovery from workouts. Vitacost has some of the best prices on supplements and they don't fail to deliver quality along with those prices. Definitely worth the money."

"I am so glad I bought this product, based on the reviews of other vitacost members. I have DEFINATELY noticed less muscle pain on the days following a hard work out, and I am also thrilled that this product helps to keep my gut lining strong, and my liver healthy (both of these are SO important for overall health). And what a GREAT price! I will definately be supplimenting with this for the rest of my life."
