    Personally I think Glutamine is worthless.

    But an ideal daily dose would be 15-20 grams a day (so 30-40 pill in your case)

    Glutamine can assist your body in absorbing creatine and in digesting other supplements. It is also used by the body in rebuilding and repairing muscle. Take it when you take creatine. If you don't use creatine, take it after you workout.

    If Glutamine is useless, what do you recommend instead?

    5/04/06 -- fever -- 148 (no food, no supps)
    5/14/06 -- one week -- 159 (10 pounds...damn)

    I second the recommendation for BCAAs or EAAs.

    *SOUND* advice. You get enough glutamine in food and whey based protein supplements. Too much is as bad as too little.
