Works great for (relapsing remitting) MS: more energy (it's the first thing I take in the morning on an empty stomach), less pain, fewer other MS-symptoms, better general well-being, boosts the immune-system. I've had no relapses for ages, although I also take LDN. If I stop taking l-glutamin, I feel much worse almost instantly. Also great when extra energy is needed for doing certain activ...

Oncologist (gynecologist) RX'd a T of L-Glutamine powder taken on empty stomach to alleviate neuropathy, standard result of chemo. Since I already experience mild foot and hand neuropathy with Type II diabetes, I gave it a shot. Chemo finished in May, still use it as needed first thing in the AM. Found 1000mg capsules online and thr grittiness is no longer an issue! Yay! for homeopathy!!

Chemotherapy (Taxolcaused neuropathy in my feet. My oncologist recommended L-Glutamine 10/mg 3x/day. Seven years later, the neuropathy returns with vengeance from time to time; when it does, I turn to the L-Glutamine for relief. It works!!

I first started taking L-Glutamine due to nerve pain and muscle weakness after a surgery. I took to much and it affected the kidneys. When I found out it might help repair the gut I decided to try taking low dosage since I'd had an UC flare-up for 8 months and my medication and probiotics weren't helping me enough. I started with 1/8 tsp. every night for the first weeks and now I take about 1/4 tsp. I've been taking L-Glutamine for four weeks now. First time in years that I've enjoyed Christmas.Read More Read Less

For first 50 years of my life, intense excise of any kind caused intense muscle pain that lasted for days. Aspirin would help control the pain, but not enough to make exercise enjoyable. In my 50s, someome told me about using glutamine. Taking a teaspoon before any intense exercise (e.g., jogging a couple miles, lifting weights) and then about every 12 hours of so after has not only enables to recover more quickly, but to experience much less discomfort when exercising. The type of "pain" is now entirely different, not the sharp pain I would feel before. I also found that the glumaine enables me to stay mentally sharp after exercise, rather than feeling too tired to think. I am now semi-retired and loving more joggin, biking, weights and exercise classes than I was ever able to experience earlier in my life. I wish I had known about the effects of glutamine sooner. (As a result, I have also begun taking whey protein and have improved muscle tone.)Read More Read Less

While using Glutamine I require no more than 3 or 4 Immodium per day instead of 6 when not taking Glutamine.
