Glutamine Xplode Powder 500 gr

Olimp Glutamine Xplode Powder is a supplement based on ultra-pure, pharmaceutical-grade micronised glutamine, fast-absorbing and immediately available to support metabolic and energy processes, aiding recovery before and after training.

Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in our body. It is considered essential because it cannot be produced independently in the amounts needed to meet our body's requirements, so it must be obtained from the daily diet or taken as a supplement.

Olimp Glutamine Xplode Powder: an amino acid that helps support muscle recovery

Glutamine plays an important role in maintaining the body's acid-base balance. This amino acid is used to remove excess ammonia, considered toxic waste for our body, allowing it to be eliminated through the kidneys, and it is also needed to produce other useful substances such as glucose or other amino acids.

Glutamine is synthesised in the muscles and then distributed to the various organs through the bloodstream; usually the body synthesises enough glutamine for normal physiological functions, but in certain cases, such as training, it cannot produce a satisfactory amount, which is why an external supplement such as Olimp Glutamine Xplode Powder becomes so important.
Glutamine also plays a key role in sport, as it performs two main functions for the athlete: the first is to aid glycogen recovery, while the second is to support protein synthesis.

Glutamine helps restore muscle glycogen after a period of intense training, during which stores are depleted faster than normal. Recent studies have shown that glutamine intake promotes the storage of glycogen in the liver and muscle, generating a significant increase in blood glucose.

Glutamine supplements are used to increase the athlete's muscle glucose (energy) stores after hard training, to restore glucose stores quickly and without raising insulin levels.

The blends in Olimp Glutamine Xplode Powder

- Vit-A-Min: Containing vitamins, amino acids and minerals that support glutamine synthesis in the body. This blend allows better glutamine absorption and improves its effects on the muscles.

- PureWay-C: a formula that combines L-cysteine, selenium and vitamin C for better synthesis of glutathione, a powerful compound with antioxidant properties which, enriched with vitamins and minerals, supports protein synthesis.

Recommended intake

As explained, glutamine is an amino acid that serves many important functions in an athlete, so a daily intake of 8 g (1/2 scoop) before going to sleep is recommended. On training days, an additional post-workout intake is also recommended.
