Individuals who engage in heavy training lower the amount of L-Glutamine in their body. Which in turn makes them more susceptible to colds and infections. Taking between 20-30 grams Glutamine every day will minimize your vulnerability to colds and infections. Spread the dosage 2-4 times a day. Glutamine even helps the digestive system function better and heal injuries. It's so effective they even use it on burn victims (healing) and individuals with HIV/AIDS (gaining muscle mass by absorbing nutrients more effectively).
