VPX Glutamine
VPX Glutamine is kinda hidden away behind all of VPX’s fancier supplements. Not that many people even know they make a glutamine powder. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It gets depleted more than any other amino acid during training. Glutamine is important in overall health not just in bodybuilding. Glutamine and BCAAs are important especially for dieters because of their anti-catabolic properties. These compounds all spare your muscle tissue.
Glutamine has been shown to increase growth hormone (GH) levels and boost your immune system. The more stress you have on your body, the more you need glutamine.
VPX says that their glutamine is as pure as you can buy….good quality stuff. Here’s the thing, I used to think that supplementing with glutamine was a good idea but not anymore. Why? Look at your protein powder. Most protein powders have enough glutamine for you just one scoop. On average, the basic protein powders will have 2-3 grams of glutamine per serving. If you are like me and take multiple scoops per day, that’s a lot of glutamine.
I would think about my protein powder before I did glutamine. Odds are you won’t need it….unless you just like taking extra glutamine. If that is the case give the
VPX glutamine a try and see what you think.
Me, I would save my more and buy more protein.
