Preservation of Lean Muscle Tissue while dieting.
A Word on BCAA's:
A staple for many bodybuilders, but overlooked by many, BCAA's help many weight trainers, athletes, and general fitness enthusiasts take their performance to the next level. BCAA (Branch Chain Amino Acids) get their name due to their unique branched chemical structure, and are essential in that the body cannot make them from other compounds. Nicknamed the 'Building Blocks' of muscle tissue, their functions include lessening the catabolic effect of muscle tissue, increasing nitrogen retention, increasing protein synthesis, and contributing to muscle tissue growth and repair.
A word about Glutamine:
Glutamine is an amino acid with a potential myriad of benefits for weight trainers, athletes, and others. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, comprising more than 60% of the free amino acid pool in skeletal muscle and more than 20% of total circulating amino acids. Glutamine is considered 'conditionally essential' and plays a key role in many bodily functions. A loss in glutamine during exercise may be a signal for protein catabolism (muscle tissue breakdown). Glutamine is used by many to aid in the recovery process because of its potential role in increasing protein synthesis.
During periods of dieting and times of carbohydrate depletion, glutamine can potentially be beneficial for sparing lean muscle tissue and having positive effects on immune function. All in all, one could go on for quite some time explaining the potential benefits of glutamine supplementation.
A word on Glutamine Peptides:
A member of the glutamine family, this peptide bonded form of glutamine is yet another critical building block for lean muscle tissue. There is an argument that this particular form of glutamine may have superior absorption over free-form glutamine. This argument lies in that in free-form glutamine, the 'free-form' means that it is 'free' from being bound to other amino acids, which may make it less stable. Glutamine peptides are not 'free'; they are bound to other amino acids with peptides. Therefore, they have the potential to be more stable and better assimilated in the body.
