Glutamine Defined

A non-essential amino acid, glutamine is considered to be a brain fuel. Glutamine has been used therapeutically for alcoholism, mild depression and to reduce the craving for sweets. Glutamine is very important in the functioning of the metabolism and muscle maintenance. Glutamine supplementation can help prevent muscle and other tissue breakdown by providing the body with nitrogen and fuel.

  • CIMC'2001: A cost-effective ness study of enteral immune modulating nutrition in intensive care patients: Nevertheless, the development of immunonutritio n (IMN), a special form of enteral feed supplemented with specific nutrients (omega-3 fatty acids, arginine, nucleotides and sometimes glutamine) has demonstrated a beneficial effect on patients' immune systems [8]. The advantages of IMN have been demonstrated in a number of studies [9-20]. Two recent meta-analyses have concluded that the use of IMN results in a significant reduction in infection rates, and as a consequence, shorter durations of hospital stay [21-22].

  • Glutamine may help prevent damage by H. pylori: Two decades ago it was announced that stomach ulcers were caused, not simply by stress, but by bacteria identified as H. pylori. Since that time, antibiotics have been used to combat the problem. Unfortunately, doctors are discovering that H. pylori is becoming somewhat immune to antibiotic treatment. A new study out of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston and MIT indicates there may be another option. Researchers conducting the study found that the non-essential amino acid, glutamine, rectifies the gastric damage wreaked by H. pylori; damage that can ultimately lead to chronic gastritis, and even stomach cancer.
