L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid – mainly found in muscles (60%), but also other tissues (lungs, etc.)

Glutamine deficiency can be caused by:
*Stress – increased cortisol in blood – glutamine taken from muscles into circulation (muscles waste away)
*Illness, post-surgery, wasting syndrome/diseases (AIDS) – glutamine taken from muscles into circulation
*Exercise (especially intense training) – increased need for glutamine to repair and build muscles
