Description
This is the most abundant amino acid in the body. During times of infection, surgery, and injury, there is a greatly increased demand for L-Glutamine (and deficiencies are likely to exist during these times). With dysbiosis, food sensitivities, ingestion of intestine damaging NSAIDS, etc. so prevalent, damage to the intestinal mucosa as well as increased gastrointestinal permeability is quite common. Adequate glutamine levels can greatly facilitate intestinal healing. Glutamine supplementation can increase small bowel mucosal thickness, villous height, preserve intestinal mucosal integrity, and enhance gut immune function. We test it on all patients with dysbiosis, food sensitivities, etc. Sometimes it only tests positive after dysbiosis is corrected.
