GL-PEP Glutamine Peptide is used for:
- Building lean muscle tissue
- Help increase HGH release
- Supports protein synthesis
- Lose body fat while retaining lean muscle mass
- Improve immune function
- Optimizing brain function
Physicians have recognized that glutamine supplementation is needed under
conditions of stress. Just as athletes, bodybuilders, runners, etc.... But, they
discovered that free form, unbonded glutamine is highly unstable in the body,
breaking down so that it is not bioavailable, and does not reach the blood
concentration levels needed to replenish healthy levels of glutamine.
Peptide-bonded glutamine, is clinically proven to be highly stable in the body,
very soluble in solution, readily absorbed by the digestive tract, and retained
in the blood and body tissues. Peptides are amino acids linked to each other by
strong, peptide bonds.
From a shortage of glutamine can cause the muscles to be broken down,
releasing glutamine to the rest of the body, leading to muscle wasting.
Especially for body-builders and other athletes undergoing vigorous training
workouts on a regular basis, it is crucial to ensure that the body's stores of
glutamine are maintained at healthy levels, through supplementation before and
after training. The athlete must be sure to build up his or her blood glutamine
level pre-workout, so the entire body has enough reserve glutamine to prevent
glutamine depletion during or after a strenuous workout. Stored glutamine
reserves are crucial to being able to function at a high level during an
athletes workout. In athletic training, glutamine helps both muscle building and
muscle protecting.
Pre-loading of glutamine with GL-PEP, in preparation for a strenuous workout,
is the key to ensuring enough glutamine reserves and preventing depletion of the
glutamine levels. Replenishing glutamine is critical to maximum performance.
After-workout supplementation is essential to restoring depleted blood levels of
glutamine used up by heavy training. The rebuilding of energy levels and
restoration of the protein building blocks supplied by glutamine are key to
preparing for, performing, and afterward sustaining the full benefit of a
strenuous workout. Glutamine supplementation improves your overall performance
and recovery from strenuous workouts.
One of Glutamine's primary metabolic functions is that it helps to regulate
glucose metabolism. Glutamine converts to glucose without changing insulin or glucagon levels. These are the hormones that regulate blood sugar. During
carbohydrate depletion, glutamine can increase body fat loss without loss of
lean body mass. Glutamine provides a high-energy source for maintaining muscle
function, by converting to glucose, which turns into glycogen stores in the
muscles. Glutamine is a key contributor to repair of gastrointestinal tract
cells and the immune system - where it contributes to nucleic acid synthesis,
which is essential to cell growth throughout the body. Glutamine supplementation
helps hard-training athletes, or someone with injury recover faster.
