L-Glutamine for weight loss

Weight loss seems so easy for some people and so difficult for others – I hope this will be helpful if you are one of the ones who struggle.

I brought in a very high grade glutamine which I adore – it has so many incredible benefits, but when you are overweight, your body needs more glutamine than it can make.

So here are just a few reasons to take this magnificent supplement:

  • Reduces cravings for sugar, carbs, food, tobacco, alcohol and even drugs
  • Helps to control blood sugar levels
  • An Italian study showed weight loss without dietary change
  • Prevents the loss of muscle mass
  • Encourages fat burning by 300%
  • Increases production of Growth Hormone which burns fat
  • Increases resting/basal metabolic rate
  • Helps to heal a leaky gut, thereby aiding weight loss
  • Reduces the circumference of the abdomen
  • Encourages liver fat (fatty liver) to use fat to be burned for energy
  • Helpful for diabetics too as it helps blood sugar control
  • An Australian study showed at 15g & 30g prevented post-meal blood sugar rise in diabetic patients
  • Glutamine modifies gut microflora – in 14 days the ratio of Fimicutes to Bacteriodetes changed to a more favourable ratio encouraging weight loss
  • Promotes better digestion
  • Improves energy and athletic performance
  • Can protect the liver from the damaging effect of chemotherapy
  • Drained after exercise? You need glutamine to recover
  • Enhances brain function
  • Increases gut bacteria even in very obese people

Dosage: 5g (1 teaspoon) in a little water 1-3 x a day (start small and build up). People report that my brand of L-Glutamine and Pure Hydrolysed Collagen has changed their lives, I hope it changes yours too – you can get both products from my online store at https://sallyanncreed.co.za/shop – use the search bar for GLUTAMINE and COLLAGEN.
