Glutamine Peptides vs. Glutamine

[MonStar1023]

My glutamine peptides just came in the mail today from DPS Nutrition. Shipped VERY quickly.. excellent service. But I have been taking glutamine for a long time and I am wondering if Ill see a big different with glutamine peptides?

Just wondering..

Bump, I am curious as well ...

I don't exactly notice a big difference going from no glutamine to glutamine peptides. So I don't think your going to notice going from regular to peptide. Just one of those things that has a good effect even if it is hard to notice like say vitamins.

i agree... w/ glutamine i don't think you'll be able to "see" results, just like flax seed oil. But you know what they do, how good they are for you, etc. and you can probobly feel a difference w/ it. Peptides are 3 times more absorbable.

They taste much worse.

There is some speculation that free form l-glutamine is converted to ammonia in the gut -- obviously before it has any beneficial effects. I have never seen this authoratatively denied or confirmed.

Peptites are definatly better. Use them before cardio along with Bcaa's (3-5 grams).

Pre Cardio empty stomach, (3-5's) of Glutamine Peptites along with 3-5 grams of Bcaa's.

I ordered my Glutamine Peptides through DPS Nutrtion from a company called AR Nutrition... have any of you ever heard of this brand..

I am really doubting it because it comes in a crumbly powder definitely doesnt seem too pue at all. Thick and crumbly powder.. it smells like choclate almost and the Nutrition Facts say that its 20 calories, and 5g glutamine peptides per serving. It says not a significant source of protein, carbs, fat, etc.


Did I get ripped off or what??

All of this info is correct. A single amino acid cannot be considered as a significant source of protein, even if there were 200grams per serving, because numerous essential AA's are missing.

Same reason pork rinds say this, despit having 8 grams per serving.

I've used AR Nutrition before. those companies don't use advertisement, that's why they're cheaper than most. When it's glutamine or creatine I go w/ the cheapest.

 

[MonStar1023]

mike peters-
Are you getting good results with AR Nutrition or what?

HELP!

The glutamine peptides from http://www.kilisports.com

Is like white flower shit floats ontop of everything. Its easier not to even attempt to mix it with anything and just pop a spoonful in your mouth and then wash it down.

It also fortified w/ calcium oddly. I wonder if thats to make the 2.2IBs cheaper for them. I'm actually glad it is though because I don't get enoug calcium. (1 tablespoons = 9grams of theirs and 33% calcium)

I'm eating Eggshells for calcium now heh, thankyou anthrax for informing me it can be digested for calcium.

I've been using proteinfactory's and they're too expensive. just got my shipment of kilosport's.. I'll let you know what I think of them when I try 'em.

There has been alot of discussion on whether L-Glutamine is better than Glutamine peptide. Studies have shown that Lglutamine doesnt absorb well when taken with a protein. It can be taken with carbs, just not a protein because the amino's compete. Peptide bonded glutamine absorbs fine when taken with protein...and some studies say it absorbs better in general. Glutamine can aid in the recovery process....speeding up recovery...leading to faster gains. L glutamine is fine to take....its usually suggested that it is taken on an empty stomach or with a carbohydrate. So if your taken L glutamine be on the safe side and dont eat a protein with it.
