I TAKE 10G AFTER WORKOUT AND ANOTHER 10G BEFORE BED I WAS TOLD THAT YOUR BODY CAN ONLY ABSORB 15 GRAMS OF GLUTAMINE PER DAY SHOULD I TAKE 15 GRAMS PER DAY INSTEAD OF 20     | ||

20 grams sounds like too much to me but then I am conservative, especially at the price of Glute. | ||

Yea man, that's a bit too much, I'd stick it around 10-15 grams. I personally use 10 - 12 grams a day. My 2 cents | ||

I take 20G of glutamine, and know several people over 25G. FLEX did a special on glut a few months ago, and never said anything about the body being able to absorb a certain amount. Stick with 20...go to: www.supplementdirect.com for good GLUT prices. I got 1000G for $50. ------------------ | ||

I take 30g a day. 20g is not too much...not all of it gets absorbed...it's a great supplement but it's efficiency of absorbtion is not very good to say the least. Peptides are more readily absorbed than free form L-glutamine but they too are not completely efficient. | ||

Glutamine is absorbed by the body the worst glutamine robber is the stomach after its requirements are met the liver & kidneys are next so its a matter of timing to get it into the muscles. I would say 2 hrs after a meal/before & after working out. | ||

I take 30g a day. I feel it works for me a high doses. Buy some LPC or intensol to increase absorbtion. ------------------ *** Dont email me asking for a source!!!!! *** "Catch a man a fish and he eats for a day, but if you teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime." | ||

WHY SHOULDNT YOU BE ABLE TO ABSORB MORE THAN 15G OF GLUT? ITS LIKE IF YOU TAKE IT ALL AT ONCE MAYBE BUT IF YOU TAKE 5 GRAMS IN SEPARATED SITTINGS YOU WILL ABSORB IT. WITH POWDERED FORM OF GLUT ITS REAL EASY TO GET OVER 20 GRAMS BTW. AND ITS GREAT TO GET 20+GRAMS GLUTAMINE...WORD... ------------------ I am Conan, the Ironbarbarian back from the deep dark hell! | ||

I stick to around 15-20g a day and it works very well...one of the few "supplements" that i feel offers a huge advantage both on and off cycle. |
