Glutamine may aid muscle recovery by reducing soreness, promoting tissue repair after intense exercise, replenishing glycogen stores, and minimizing muscle protein breakdown. It potentially achieves this by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress.
Glutamine plays a role in muscle recovery by potentially reducing muscle soreness and promoting faster tissue repair following intense exercise. This is thought to occur through the reduction of inflammation and oxidative stress. Glutamine may also assist in replenishing glycogen stores, particularly when co-ingested with carbohydrates. Furthermore, it may contribute to minimizing muscle protein breakdown.
