Hello Raynor,
I've read a couple BCAA vs Glutamine forums across the net, and basically everyone has there own broscience theory on the 2 products. Even some people claiming glutamine is destroyed once it enters your gut and is virtually useless.
Which do you recommend? Or are they both decent? Ty
Edit; for building muscle
Hey there. Glutamine is definitely NOT destroyed through the digestion process. If that was true, then we would all be glutamine deficient. If they are referring to glutamine powder....certain supplements are better than others. Some may digest, others may not...some may get destroyed by stomach acid...others may not. It all depends.
Anyway, I recommend the following:
2g bcaa pre, intra (every 45 mins) and post workout. Try optimum nutrition BCAA-1000 caps.
Secondly, for glutamine, I recommend PH Buffered glutamine. You can try Scifit glutalyn. Take 2 pills post workout and 2 pills before bed.
In conjunction with a great diet and a good protein shake such as Optimum Nutrition Pro Complex Natural, you will find yourself with a complete amino profile.
