Its the most abundant amino acid in the body. Some swear by it, others say its a waste of money. I think your supposed to take it(5grams) 2-3 times a day spread out evenly(once morning, once after/before w/o, once before bed.)

By most studies, VERY good, especially post-workout. Most studies indicate it aids recovery and the immune system.

I started taking it just a couple months ago and it's great....after workouts and before bed, and sometimes right after I wake up....about 4-5 grams each time.....It used to take me a full week to recover, and now my recovery is down to about 4 days. I've also noticed that when I feel like I might be getting sick, it goes away really quickly- since it's cheap, give it a try

For as many studies out there that say it's beneficial, there are just as many that say it has no effect on preventing muscle breakdown any more than a whole protein source.
Since L-Glutamine was poor oral bio-availabilty, most of it does not get past the digestive system (GUT) and what ends up in the blood stream is concluded to be broken to glucose.

Nope. Considering you just bumped about 10 glutamine threads the other day. I pay attention
