Performance
Enhancement
We all know the benefits of taking HP-100
and NANO Creatine
after training for recovery and muscle growth. What if we
could add to that combination to further enhance their effects?
NANO Glutamine may be the answer. A Scientific study on
Glutamine has found a 2 gram dose increased Growth Hormone
levels by 430%. Growth Hormone is an important anabolic
hormone, involved in protein synthesis, uptake of amino acids
and utilisation of fat for energy. Adding NANO Glutamine to
your post workout recovery could well be the most effective
way to boost your muscle growth and recovery to the next level.
The
Health Benefits
Glutamine's importance was first demonstrated in the 1930’s
by Sir Hans Krebs - one of the pre-eminent biochemists of
all time. Dr. Krebs - a master at metabolic cycles, is best
known for his discovery of the citric acid cycle ( krebs cycle
) which creatine is involved in. But few are aware that he
was the first to recognize glutamine's significance in nitrogen
metabolism. Glutamine has now been recognized by doctors and
professionals for providing significant contributions in preventing
muscle breakdown, maintaining Glutathione (GSH) levels, improving
protein synthesis, elevating growth hormone levels, plus many
other health beneficial functions. Glutamine supplements have
been a critical staple in athletes diets due to the fact that
glutamine levels fall after intense training and do not rise
to full strength until complete recovery has occurred. It
has been a critical supplement for AIDS and cancer patients
because it helps prevent muscle wasting.
Problems
with Glutamine
One problem with L-Glutamine is that it is highly insoluble.
Put it in water and watch how poorly it mixes up. It will
mix up like a cloudy liquid. If it does not dissolve, absorption
can become difficult. Clinical science and practical experience
have also proven that it does not reach the blood in concentration
levels needed to fully replenish healthy levels of glutamine.
In addition, a little known fact, is that almost all of the
research done on free form glutamine supplementation was done
in hospitals on subjects receiving the glutamine intravenously.
Just because you buy and take something called glutamine,
does not mean you are going to benefit from all the metabolic
functions that glutamine performs. To address this potential
problem, products were developed that contain glutamine peptide
in place of L-glutamine; the peptide form allows these supplements
to be consumed without glutamine being metabolised in your
digestive system. The disadvantage is, Glutamine Peptides
are so bitter tasting, it makes it hard to swallow. It is
almost impossible to mask the bitter taste. Putting it in
capsule form is then a thought. But to get recommended therapeutic
doses you would have to consume at least 20capsules at a time.
Which is not practical.
Problem
Solved!
ASN Advanced Sports Nutrition is a company which strives
for one thing. Results! Following in the
footsteps of NANO Creatine, ASN is proud to be the first company
in the world to bring you another scientific breakthrough
with the development of - NANO Glutamine. A Glutamine supplement
with enhanced absorption for uptake directly into your body.
Use
1/3 Less Than Normal Glutamine
A lot of companies suggest you take at least 10grams of Glutamine
per serving. This is because a lot of Glutamine is utilised
by your digestive system, so the theory is if we flood the
digestive tract with Glutamine some will actually pass through
into our body. If it could pass directly into our body without
being ‘robbed’ by our digestive system you would
not need to take as much. Therefore, because of the enhanced
absorption of the NANO-Glutamine, only 3 grams per serving
(approx)1 heaped teaspoon is needed providing better utilisation.
Check the Samples Above
It’s hard to believe both glasses
contain ten grams of Glutamine. Have a close look at the glass
containing Nano Glutamine, it has fully dissolved. Because
of this new amazing technology your body is able to absorb
every gram of it giving you Growth, Health and Recovery like
never before.
The
Many Functions of Glutamine
Glutamine is a unique Amino Acid in that it contains two
Nitrogen molecules - this feature gives Glutamine all of its
unique health benefits and makes it the most versatile nutrient,
other than water, in the human body.
Some of the many functions of Glutamine include;
Amino Acid

Ammonia
Scavenger
GABA

The
Essential Supplement
Having so many important functions in the human body, one
would think Glutamine would be a part of everybody’s
diet. It has long been used in hospitals for patients suffering
from burns, wounds and bacterial infections. It’s importance
to athletes has also been known by sports institutes for a
while. So what is the problem? Is it lack of education or
the cost? It is probably both, but more the cost. At ASN we
aim to change all that. Compared to other foods or supplements,
Glutamine is an expensive product. In the past to get maximum
benefit out of Glutamine, you have to take it in large doses.
With most people on a budget the cost becomes out of reach
because you only have a small number of servings that last
only a couple of weeks. However, with the new NANO Glutamine,
Glutamine supplementation is now affordable. That’s
because with NANO Glutamine you only use 3 grams per serve
which gives you the same benefits as using over 10 grams of
standard Glutamine. This equates to over 2 months supply of
Glutamine instead of a few weeks.
Cost
Effectiveness
Now everybody can afford the benefits that
Glutamine provides. The Health Benefits of using NANO Glutamine
outweighs the cost compared to any other supplement. With
a little education, in future we may well see NANO Glutamine
become a part of everybody’s diet, just like Multi-Vitamins
& Minerals are a part of everybody’s health today.
