More Benefits of Glutamine 
Glutamine increases production of glutathione, the main antioxidant of the body. This in turn boosts immune function, protects all tissues from damage, and detoxifies harmful substances. Glutamine is also an important precursor for neurotransmitter substances in the brain, and supports brain wellness and mental energy. When 12 grams (four teaspoons) was given to alcoholics, glutamine eliminated alcohol cravings in 75% of those studied. 22 Glutamine also helps promote milk production in lactating women. Since glutamine dissolves instantly in water and has no taste, the powder form is recommended. This allows for maximum purity as well as economy. If using capsules, three 1,000 mg capsules of glutamine equals one teaspoon of powder. Glutamine is very safe and without side effects.
