glutamine transaminase

somewhere i read about glutamine helping with detox or helping you feel better after detox. i am coming off tramadol. anyone know anything?

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?

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.

•Aspartate transaminase (AST) also called serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) or aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT/AAT) is similar to alanine transaminase (ALT) in that it is another enzyme associated with liver parenchymal cells. Those are pretty high levels. AST are liver function tests that measure the level of enzymes in the liver, the high numbers could indicate something going on with your liver, I would certainly talk to your doctor about it.

>> 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.

my liver is alanine transaminase (sgpt) 59 what you sggest

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.

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.

between 10 and 60% of persons infected with HCV clear the virus from their bodies during the acute phase, as shown by normalization of the liver enzymes alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST), and plasma HCV-RNA clearance (this is known as spontaneous viral clearance). However, persistent infections are common and most patients develop chronic hepatitis C, i.e., infection lasting more than 6 months.

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...

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.

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?

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), formerly called serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase, or SGPT, is an enzyme necessary for energy production. It is present in a number of tissues, including the liver, heart, and skeletal muscles, but is found in the highest concentration in the liver. Because of this, it is used in conjunction with other liver enzymes to detect liver disease, especially hepatitis or cirrhosis without jaundice.

A thorough medical history and physical examination are the cornerstone of the evaluation of patients with mildly elevated liver transaminase levels.1 The history should attempt to identify risk factors for disease, with special attention directed toward family history, medications, vitamins, herbal supplements, drug use, alcohol use, abnormal liver testing, blood-product transfusions, and symptoms of liver disease.

Serum Glutamic Oxalocetic Transaminase(SGOT) or AST is an enzyme found primarily in the liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, and muscles. Its normal reference range is Normal Adult Range: 0 - 42 U/L Optimal Adult Reading: 21. Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase or ALT is an enzyme found primarily in the liver but also to a lesser degree, the heart and other tissues. It is useful in diagnosing liver function more so than SGOT levels.

Causes of liver transaminase elevations include viral hepatitis, alcohol use, medication use, steatosis or steatohepatitis, and cirrhosis. Steatosis and cirrhosis are ruled out by the ultrasound. Other common health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, pancreatitis, hemolytic anemia and thyroid disease, can also cause liver transaminase elevations. Most liver diseases are characterized by greater ALT elevations than AST elevations except cirrhosis and alcohol abuse.

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?

The median alanine transaminase at the time of the first positive HCV PCR was 65 IU/ml. At this time, 75% of patients had a negative HCV antibody test. Three months later, 37% of patients still had a negative result. After 9 months, 10% of patients had a negative test and 5% remained negative after 1 year. Conclusion/discussion: Delayed seroconversion in HIV-positive individuals with acute HCV may result in delayed diagnosis and treatment.

And the BMI is normal, And here tachicardia and the elevation of AST(Aspartate Transaminase) and ALT(Alanine transaminase) indicates its a mild attack , it can be solved with thking less cholestrol diet and a regular exercise , if any thing more occurs (chest pain again) the first aid is give some nice left chest 1inch below nipple and caugh loudely
