Optimum Nutrition L-Glutamine Muscle Recovery Capsules, 1000mg, 240 Count (Package May Vary)

Works As Described, Great Value!

Good product. Good quality. Nice presentation. Easy to swallow it.

It's been a good product for me already, especially now that I am over 6 decades old. It wasn't long ago that this fact literally slapped me in the face of realization and I decided to start fighting back against age in the best way I knew how, which means a lot more gym time when I can get it. I decided to change my weight lifting routine to fit more of my desired results and age.....rather than lifting heavy weights with just a few sets and reps to produce mass and raw strength as I did when I was younger, I decided to go with a routine of lighter weights with an increased amount of reps and sets to help with muscle tone and balance and, of course, to burn more calories and fat to combat a natural slowing of my metabolism. It's seem to have worked out better, but I believe that it tears the muscles down more to exercise like this and the recovery time was admittedly a bit long @ first. This is just one of the ways where this product comes in handy. Glutamine is supposedly the most abundant amino acid in the body and rather than buying a good BCAA product, I decided to get this and combine it with a good Isolate Whey protein powder and a good dose of Creatine before and after exercising. This regime has already helped to cut the recovery time down to virtually nothing for me, even though I've increased my weight limits by 10% to 20% depending on the particular exercise. Granted, I still hurt a bit the morning after but I don't think that I would be making progress without that being the case....that's just the nature of weight lifting. But instead of days of down time to recover, this particular combination of supplements has decreased it to about 1 - 1.5 days and then I'm good to go again. It just seems to me that when you tear your muscles down by lifting, then they just get hungry and you have to FEED them with what they need most and, for me, this product is exactly that. Good product in my opinion and damn good Seller.

Heyy,I have been working out for some time now and int he past would mostly supplement my workouts naturally (eggs, milk, cottage cheese etc).However, whenever i would hit the gym with a vengeance the next day would go KABOOM on me.. zombieing around the town with my work getting affected.Essentially, the recovery from workouts was a real point of concern for me.Finally picked up the ON L-Glutamine (1 KG) along with BCAA's and gold standard whey protein (again by ON).Now, i have used ON whey in the past as a standalone supplement and i did see some muscle tone improvement through it but with the combination of Glutamine and BCAA's to it things have been great.First Impressions --You open the box and that smell damped my spirits in 1 go. Feels as if it was injected with the sewer fragrance (if you can call it that) :D . Jokes apart, mixes in water well although a bit of grit is left in the cup once you drink it (add some more water, shake and it all gets washed down the throat).taste is fairly decent (manageable).Observations --I have been taking it for more then a month now (early morning and before bedtime). the bowel movement is definitely impacted for one and becomes better for sure.My muscle tone and definition has improved quite a bit and recovery is awesome (although the BCAA's and whey would have some role in that too).Body immunity has somehow been impacted for the worse which is surprising (have a cold for almost 2-3 weeks now, very mild though).Additionally, i have started feeling hungry like crazy (earlier, could go on without food for 12 hrs or more (not good i know) without any issues but now the stomach is like a kitchen on fire asking for more fuel every 2 hours).All in all the effects have been beneficial for me and i would continue this for some time for now.Grievances --powder Smell.. impact on immunity (not sure of the reason though since glutamine improves immunity as far as i know).I checked that brands like NOW FOODS and BULK SUPPLEMENTS offer cheaper L-glutamine as against ON but then their authenticity is a matter of concern for me and hence i would want to stick to ON for the time to come.

I'm extremely impressed with Optimum Nutrition's L-Glutamine Muscle Recovery Capsules. As someone who works out regularly and pushes myself hard, I've been on the lookout for a high-quality supplement to aid in muscle recovery, and this product definitely fits the bill.I love that each capsule contains a potent 1000mg of L-Glutamine, which has been shown to be one of the most effective amino acids for muscle recovery and growth. Since starting to take these capsules, I've noticed a significant decrease in muscle soreness and fatigue, which has allowed me to push myself harder in the gym and see better results.One of the things I appreciate most about this product is the fact that it's made by Optimum Nutrition, a company that's known for its high-quality supplements and commitment to transparency in their manufacturing processes. I also love that the capsules are easy to swallow and don't leave a bad aftertaste like some other supplements I've tried.Overall, I highly recommend Optimum Nutrition L-Glutamine Muscle Recovery Capsules to anyone looking for a high-quality supplement to aid in muscle recovery and growth. It's an effective and affordable product from a trusted brand that's definitely worth trying.

My hubby swears by this stuff. It's an amino acid so it helps with muscle recovery, strength and stamina. He's a 58 year old competitive powerlifter in great health and this product is helping him!
