What doses of L-Glutamine should be taken?
Supplementing the diet with as little as 2-6 grams per day may have significant effects on protein metabolism and cell volumizing. Similar to Creatine, L-Glutamine seems to require a “loading phase” whereby taking higher doses of this amino acid, sometimes as high as 10-15 grams per day, may cause a rapid increase in cell volumization and muscle hardness thus leading to greater muscular gains. EAS has a product called GKG which offers L-Glutamine. GKG not only provides the free amino acid L-Glutamine but also the L-Glutamine precursors alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) and taurine, the second most abundant free amino acid in muscle, which also promotes cell volumizing. GKG has been designed as a post-workout supplement to replenish and restore key amino acids following an intense workout. The best way to take GKG is to consume six capsules within 30 minutes following a workout on an empty stomach. On training days, take another six capsules before bedtime with a carbohydrate drink or meal. On
