I think it is different for everyone but from my experience with Glutamine it did make me break out hardcore, but I was on juice at the time too so it could be either, but I only starting noticing it after I started taking the Glutamine/. | ||

I have never seen nor heard of this side effect associated w/ glutamine.I can't even think of a reason why it could cause this.I take upwards of 30-40gr. per day of it and never had a problem.R u sure u are not using anything else that could be causing this? ------------------ | ||

It kind of would make sense that you might break out from glutamine use. Obviously it isn't an androgen, but leads to a positive nitrogen (protein) balance, enunciated by a spike. Antibiotics used to treat acne (ie: tetracycline) work by breaking down protein synthesis and it isn't that uncommon for someone on tetracycline to lose considerable weight at the time. I really don't have any scientific data of course, but just a possible idea. | ||

bro, same thing hapenned to me. Glutemine made me break out all over my back, my face and arms. I was in my 4th week of EQ, Sust, D-bal, Deca without one pimple. As soon as I started taking glutemine it happenned. I stopped taking it and now I'm on my 8th week and I get ramdom pimples on my back. really strange. stay away from it. | ||

No problems at all with glutamine unless I am on a cycle. I have been using it for over a year and never had problems. | ||
