I really don't think so

I have tried it and did not find it successful enough to purchase again.
On the other hand, I have bought L-Argenine a few times and found it helped my workouts, but made me way too horny all the time.

I include an extra 5g scoop in all of my protein shakes so I take about 15-20grams a day. I don't know if it works or not really but I do think it maybe useful . Otherwise I guess I wouldn't take it.

I consider it one of my essential in my reigmen. I am sure the body is benefiting from it.
not worth it.. neither is BCAA.. plenty of amino acids in just whey alone
there is some glut in my casein that I drink before bed. I have been adding 5 more grams to that as well as all of my whey shakes. Glutamine isn't that expensive and it doesn't hurt so if you got the money and everything else is in check then why not?
Ive never seen any tangible benefit from Glutamine . . with glutamine having such shitty bioavailability I'd go with free-form BCAAs, which I only use with fasted AM cardio.
To be honest, Ive never noticed much with creatine either (mono or any of those other homo blends). It's either Gears or gtfo

1 vial of T > a cupboard full of placebos
Supps are overrated placebos.
People vary widely in their response to creatine. Im lucky, I can tell quite a big difference when using it vs. not. Fish oil is also a staple, I get pissed when I run out.
Other products may do something, but their cost:benefit ratio is awful.

I've read it works in-vitro, but not in the "real world". So, I pass on the glutamine. I'd rather spend the money on a well researched product that actually does something.
No.
I'd rather spend my 15 beans on a fully satisfying meal I know will work.
. . no wonder you never recovered juggers

Aren't almost all the studies on glutamine showing positive results done on diabetes patients or people with serious muscle atrophy/dystrophy issues? I don't think there are many, if any, positive studies where glutamine was administered to perfectly healthy adults; Let alone veteran lifters where muscle mass is more abundant then the average male. 60% of unbound aminos in the muscle are glutamine, if you're a veteran lifter, your glutamine levels should be inherently high.

10mg sounds like a pretty negligible amount. 25-30g are used in the medical field to treat muscle dystrophy, just say'n. I think if you are going to use it, I'd at least go 1-5g daily.
My booger has more than 10mg of glutamine in it
Probably the best thing to do. You're body has enough of it and it just ends up competeing with other aminos your could use. better to spend your $ elsewhere.
