BCAA's are superior imo, but it can't hurt to take both.

guess ill be makin another trip to Vitamin Shoppe lol

[MuscleMessiah]

I used to take glutamine routinely, but I felt it didn't benefit me at all so I stick to what I can feel and see work like the bcaa s and good ol' food. I feel I get glutamine from some of my pre workout sups and proteins that if there is a benefit that I'm getting it anyway but I'm not gonna waste money on it anymore... thats a good read Lifts

[Hawaiianpride.]

not worthless but doesn't provide what many labels claim.

leucine ftw.

[Mr Incredible]

so carbs > glutamine at stopping excercise induced cortisol and immune depression.

Also what BCAA are you talking about taking pre and PWO Lifts, just straight isolate or what?

[Rocky07]

Mr. Incredible....i have nooooo idea lol...i have never taken glutamine b4 until now and didnt know what bcaa was until Lifts said something about it.

what would u recommend i do here? im just lookin for some dietary supplements that promote fat loss and lean muscle gain that actually do work. im taking the glutamine peptide that i bought just for the sake of not wasting it but i havent bought any bcaa yet...was gonna buy it tomorrow when i get off work

Thanks for sharing the info about the glutamine and the all post is based on the research and true saying one.... Thanks for acknowledging the community about the glutamine and have some more please if you have any of this kind........ Thanks in advance.....

[MR. BMJ]

I only use glutamine for intestinal and immune health only.

[Mr Incredible]

I always thought of it as more an imune system bolster than anything

[GetBigger]

imo you get all the bcaa's and glutamine thro a proper diet and there is no need for supplementation.

[Mr Incredible]

Evan Centopani dissagrees though;

see about 3min onwards in the vid

Glutamine is still good for other things with health, like for your gut and stress. So i woudlnt knock it out altogether.

I'm in agreement with you, I personally feel it has benefits, I just reposted a thread to garner debate.
