Avatar m tn >> In my case glutamine and collagen make my reactions worse. That's interesting, I've never heard of that. I know other PATMERs who benefit from it too so I'm surprise it doesn't work for you. There's another thing you have to take in mind. A proper died is compulsory. If you eat KFC, MacDonald, bread, butter etc. it almost makes no different. >> What brand glutamine you take ?! I took "L-Glutamine" from Jarrow Formulas. I always take it with Collagen.
Avatar f tn somewhere i read about glutamine helping with detox or helping you feel better after detox. i am coming off tramadol. anyone know anything?
Avatar m tn Before I start consuming the glutamine I use to loss 5 pounds every 2 weeks. Is the glutamine making a weight loss restriction for me?
Avatar n tn I have been taking L-Glutamine for GERD, slow gastric emptying and it has certainly improved my condition to the point where I can eat and digest nearly as normally as when I was an adolescent and could eat and usually did eat practically everything. Although now I am much more careful as to what I eat, how and when. I lift weights quite regularly and could see some interesting positive effects of glutamine supplementation on my recovery and sustained muscle belly volume also.
Avatar m tn Some people have a natural high metabolism which tends to cause them not to gain weight. Suggest eating 3 meals a day constituency with drinking high nutrient drinks - Ensure, Boost or make milkshakes (milk, fruit, and ice cream blended) or yogurt smoothies (yogurt, fruit, and ice cream blended) 3 times a day to help you gain weight slowly. You have to constantly eat and drink the shakes daily to gain weight if you have a high metabolism. Hoped that helped you.
Avatar m tn 1. Is there any advantage in favour of this suplements over regular food? (for example when taking a PostWorkoutMeal) Is it necessary to use it? (to maximize the effect of workout of course) 2. What is recommended daily dose for protein for a healthy male who workouts with weights 4 times per week? (the usual story is 2g per kg so is it true?) 3. Is there any unwanted consequences in case of overdose? for instance kidney problems, or maybe low holesterol?
Avatar m tn Recently, my gastro doctor had me try L-Glutamine. First, I started the dose at 500mg 3 times a day on an empty stomach. I’ve increased the dose up to 3grams a day, dosing 1000mg 3 times a day on an empty stomach. The goal that my Dr and I set was to reach 12grams a day. At the 3 gram dose, I’ve had some considerable improvement in symptoms with bloating and acid reflux, but I noticed I getting some serious joint pain in my hands, feet and knees.
451053 tn?1237577749 I too had mouth sores...I used L-Glutamine to relieve them. It worked immediately. Glutamine is an amino acid which is produced by the body in the digestive track. Chemo kills it. Glutamine is a supplement sold at GNC stores and health food places. It's a powder that you can mix with pudding, lemonade, etc. I used one tablespoon of it, mixed with an 8-ounce glass of water, as a mouthwash. Incredible stuff.
Avatar f tn If it is from chemo you had in the past, take 2 rounded tsp of L-glutamine in water daily. If you see improvement by the end of your "bucket" of glutamine, it works for you. If it doesn't, it never will. You can find glutamine in any stores that has prducts for body builders. hope this helps. it is from feedback of many patients...
Avatar n tn Hello. I have been underweight for a long time. I suspect I have a leaky gut. I just learnt about Glutamine supplements. I want to find out if it's fine to take Glutamine supplements.
Avatar f tn Thanks grateful2011 for the tip. I was looking into healing my leaky gut as well in the past using glutamine powder. Didn't help as much. Will try the broth this time. You reckon the broth protein powder would hold the same amount of amino acids?
Avatar m tn Does anyone know if having your Gallbladder removed slows down your metabolism? or does it speed it up? What have you experienced?
Avatar f tn If you really want to kick-start your metabolism, you may also try dividing your meals up into smaller portions that you eat more often throughout the day. Every time you eat, it helps your metabolism rise, so as strange as it may sound, eating frequently can help you lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. Take care!
1203175 tn?1265553335 Anyone know how to kick start your metabolism so you start losing pounds, other than weight loss medications? Will not use those.
1397290 tn?1357777871 Calorie-intake should be according to your physical activity. 2800-3000 is quite a lot, which if you don't gain of it, you should perhaps seek professional aid.
Avatar m tn The pseudo amino acid most associated with GABA is taurine. Glutamine is most associated with glutamine, which is a very important neurotransmitter for mental health, particularly depression and bipolar. But again, I don't really see you needing that coming off of methadone, which affects all neurotransmitters including dopamine but which again if you up these while your brain is still trying to adapt back to functioning without your drug it can make withdrawal harder.
415684 tn?1257329318 You can add L-Glutamine to the mix as well as this is used by many cancer patients to prevent mouth sores. You can pick up L-Glutamine at places like GNC which sell an unflavored mix so you can add it to anything. Typical dosage is about 5g to 10g (*NOT* mg but g=grams) 3x day. Here is one, of many, research papers on the effect of L-Gluatmine: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9762946?
