    Question Article about Glutamine

    I just read an article on Glutamine which stated that it is normally manufactured by the body, mainly in skeletal muscles. If it is non-essential, shouldn't it be cycled to prevent the body from shutting off its production...or am I way off base on this? I was under the impression that supplementation of anything the body creates naturally would cause the body to halt its production. Any info is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    They're called "non-essential" because they can be synthesized from the "essential" amino acids.

    Without those 8 (or 9 under the right conditions) essential amino acids, the body doesn't produce anything.

    And you eventually die.

    Your body doesn't create amino acids itself.

    I'm listening...I'm listening. Thanks for the advice. I actually did my own research on the fart thing. The body seems to produce more of those than I needed.
