Glutamine - Substances that Enhance
These Substances may Enhance the Function of Glutamine
Amino Acids
Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) may facilitate the endogenous production of Glutamine (it provides the Carbon skeleton for a portion of Glutamine synthesis):
Supplemental Alpha-Ketoglutarate may increase stores of Glutamine in the Muscles.
Glutamine is converted to Glutamic Acid - which otherwise cannot pass through the Blood-Brain Barrier - within the Brain (Glutamic Acid is converted to Glutamine when an additional Nitrogen atom is added to Glutamic Acid and Glutamine is converted to Glutamic Acid when the additional Nitrogen atom is removed from Glutamine).
