BulkSupplements.com L-Glutamine Powder - Glutamine Supplement, for Recovery & Gut Health - Unflavored & Gluten Free, 5g (5000mg) per Serving, 1kg (2.2 lbs) (Pack of 1)

First of all, let's take a moment and wait for all the amazing, well meaning hippies and planet earth enthusiasts to leave this review section. Go on, I'll wait tilI I hear your birkenstocks clop clop clop down the hallway before I begin. Heaven forbid anyone of them buy a product that isn't made from 100% organic and blessed by New Zealand made vegetarian duck farts. Yes this product comes from China, so by default everything is evil and cruel in the world and toxic and we're going to give ourselves cancer because it's not double certified and and kosher blessed by a rabbi's fart to boot. Wanting to use this product wouldn't have ANYTHING to do with the logic in seeing 10K plus positive reviews stating how these products have helped people (rolls eyes). Now that it's just you and I, I'll continue. I'm here because I was searching for amino acids to buy in bulk without fillers. I wanted something priced fair and pure. After all my searching, Bulk Supplements had the ideal products. The only thing that was left for me to do was scan through all the reviews to see if such products would help me. I have a connective tissue disorder so I made it a point to buy all the aminos that had an effect in regards to tissues of the body. I also bought Glutamine as I read that helped people with their SEVERE bread/wheat/carbohydrate cravings as I have severe bread cravings for that and dairy. I work out often and can never lost the extra 25 pounds because of my food addiction to wheat and dairy. After one day I felt a difference so noticeable I logged in and bought the other remaining 4 amino Acids I needed but did not buy before do to not wanting to spend so much. But since they work and it seems most of these will last 6 months to a year, I opened the floodgates and bought everyone that was unique to me. I ended up buying about 8 products on my first purchase 6 weeks ago. Coming from someone who has tried adding coconut oil, vitamins, probiotics, nothing ever seemed to make much of a difference. It wasn't until I started taking amino acids that everything moved forward for me in my health goals. THIS......STUFF.......WORKS! I also have chronic fatigue syndrome and I'm seeing progress in my energy and health. I want to add that I also bought the Potassium citrate. I can't EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW MUCH THAT ALSO HELPED ME! I work out every other day and I use the sauna for about 40 minutes. In conjunction with taking aminos and now getting about 5K (4700 the average, but I workout hard) mg of potassium citrate, I'm feeling so much better! Even in my workouts I had to increase the weight by about 20 percent on the machines I use, and I even had to add more reps onto my sets! My original workout felt like I never even worked out since taking these products! Now even with added weight and reps onto my workout regimen, I still feel like I didn't quite workout enough! But I keep my increases minimal as I don't want to go ahead to much. But I can't flipping believe how much these products have boosted what I can do in the weight room AND not feel like a gassed race horse when I'm done. This stuff is literally the MAGIC powder. And with how its helping me with regular health outside of working out and also keeping me from falling off on binge eating on pizza and ice cream, this stuff is it. I'll always be a consumer of these products. Since I already ordered 3 times from this company (LOL) in the last 6 weeks, I got three free sample products to try that I WOULD NOT NORMALLY BUY! But since they also helped, I ended up adding them onto my next order! And to those people that complained about getting the free samples being just a marketing ploy and other nonsense, BUGGER OFF! There are products I wouldn't have bothered to try but since I got to try them for free and I liked them, I added them onto my next purchase. Because they worked for ME. You're getting a product that could very well last for a month and free shipping, all you have to do is leave a review if you like it or not. Yes, what a scam bulk supplements is running (rolls eyes). As of now there are two other products I plan on ordering from them, the Melatonin and the BCAA 3-1-2 product. Again, I'm only doing this because of how much positive gains I'm seeing in my health and workout. Another bonus was I could never eat enough meat, I was always hungry for tuna, turkey, beef, I could never get enough and my grocery bill was always high. Now I can eat a normal serving of meat and I feel like I don't need anymore thanks to taking the Acetylcarnitine and the Creatine, components that are found in muscle tissue. How I take my supplements is as follows- I take one serving size amount of each one in the morning. Then in the evening I take one serving size of only the msm, ascorbic acid, acetyl carnitine, Arginine, L-Glutamine, D-Ribose, potassium citrate. I take this because of budget, I want what I have to last longer, but these products are most important in keeping my cravings at bay so I take them once more at night. You can take some of these 3 times a day it says, but I only do them all once, and what I just listed twice. If I was rich and could afford $300 in supplements every 2-3 months I'd take them 3 times day. But since I'm not I make them last :) In summary, what I take is what I feel my body needs. And I am 100% happy with the effects I have experienced. And as for odors like some people described when they open their packages, well.........Some of these are chemicals, aren't they? MSM will smell like a sulphur like smell, correct? Unless you want added scents to mask things (which I don't) I honestly have not had a problem with that. And for the foil cosing bag, what I did was go to Walmart and buy a package of the large sized mason jars and I use those to hold my amino's in. I can't see knocking off a star because of the foil bag seal. Just pour it in a wide mouth mason jar and get a measure spoon to dish it out. If you're wondering what products I've used with this company, if you're reading this review then this is the product I purchased and have in my pantry. I'm not rewriting a review for each item, so I am copying and pasting a review to use on every item I bought from them. Any other questions please ask, but I find that as a person with health issues and food issues these items have helped me beyond anything else I've ever tried.

BulkSupplements L-Glutamine powder has, among others, been approved by ConsumerLab’s testing see newsletter dated 07/07/2026. I’ve been on steroids, NSAIDS, low dosage chemo drugs for almost 22 years. A dangerous case of anemia in 2014 made me an early retiree. Anemia or internal bleeding can be a side effect of Rheumatoid Arthritis and mentioned medications. While I stopped oral steroids, take the chemo drugs via injection, I can’t stop the anti inflammatory meds. My specialist and I discussed the pros and cons, deciding on a lower dosage NSAID. While reading the newsletter by ConsumerLab I came across the possible benefits of L-Glutamine for NSAID users (powder stirred into water and consumed shortly before, during, after, taking these meds) and IBS-D sufferers like me. Since there aren’t any side effects of Glutamine unless allergic to MSG I decided to give it a try. Since I just started, I’m unable to report success or failure but I will know because I suffer from infrequent stomach problems despite taking prescription stomach medicine. Overall, L-Glutamine is a beneficial amino-acid, helpful in muscle building and overall health. Please discuss the usage of ANY supplements with your healthcare provider!

I purchased this product to improve my gut health due to chronic issues with gluten and to help my recovery after power lifting and strength training. I would highly recommend this product because... 1) Taste: Slight bright taste. It tastes slightly "bright" like I've added a little bit of lemon to the water - but it doesn't feel or taste acidic. I don't mind the flavor at all and would prefer to just drink it in water than throw it in a smoothie. I add 2 tsps into 10 oz of water every morning to help repair my gut lining from food sensitivities. 2) Quality: I've done a lot of research and Bulk Supplements ensures that items are not cross contaminated - which is extremely important in supplement production and for folks who have allergy sensitivity. 3) Effectiveness: I've used a few other products and this is the only product that didn't increase bloating but rather reduced it! After a month of consistent use, I am now able to eat low lactose products (where before I couldn't eat any dairy at all). Including this product to address muscle recovery and response has also been amazing. My recovery after kettlebell and power lifting workouts has improved dramatically after using this product consistently. CONS (Depending on your expectations) 1) Instructions: The instructions suggest that individuals should start with 1/4 of a tsp (which I think most individuals should start with so the gut can get used to the product). I would recommend speaking with your physician or nutritionist to determine your exact dosage to ensure that the product is helping you effectively address your needs. 2) Packaging: This product comes in a bulk bag and does not include a "scoop". The item is naturally very powdery - so sticking your hand into this bag to pull out a dosage gets very messy. I usually put two weeks of powder into a wide mouth jam jar to make it easier to access. Overall, I love this brand Bulk Supplement. I'm sure that everyone's body is unique, however based on my individual experience, this product has improve my quality of life by improving my gut health and supporting muscle recover after workouts!

I have used other BulkSupplements products and they are wonderful so I expected nothing less from them. However when I did receive this particular product I had a issue with it. The issue was I received a bad batch and the product had a Ammonia aroma to it. I emailed both Amazon and BulkSupplements on this matter. Amazon accepted the return of this product and apologized about this matter. While BulkSupplements also apologized about the matter & informed me that I would be better of placing future orders directly through them to help reduce any issues with their products. They were also nice enough to allow me to review one of their other products free of charge for another honest product review. I did some research and found the reason for this product going bad was due to being exposed to excessive heat weather in the production or the transportation of it. In conclusion BulkSupplements strive to make a quality product and have a solid relationship with its customers I will continue to order from them in the future. I will also be posting my honest/ un-biased reviews about other products that I have tried weather I paid for them for receive them. So about this product it works great its not some miracle product that will transform you over night but it does seem to help with soreness the following day. I'm a 25 year bodybuilder/ powerlifter I don't compete I just do it because I love to stay healthy and active. I do take a slightly higher then the recommended dose due to my size and my body needing more. I would have gave this product a 5 star but due to the issue I had the first time I received it.

Bulk Supplements delivers again. I've been supplementing glutamine off-and-on for a few years now. While it's synthesized naturally by the body, it is the most abundant amino acid in the body (constituting ~80% of free amino acids in the blood stream). It is utilized by multiple systems, including the immune system. As it is synthesized by our bodies, it is not considered essentially; however, glutamine may be considered an essential amino acid in people performed vigorous activities or intense exercise as the body may not be able to synthesize enough of it, or at a fast enough rate, to support both muscle recovery and the immune system. This is why you may become transiently immunosuppressed after intense exercise. While this suppression is short-lived, I decided not to take any chances in light of last year's nasty flu season (I work in an emergency department.). I absolutely loath being sick and turn into a huge baby, incessantly annoying my wife with my whining. I've been hitting the irons and attending the gym religiously since about June, 2016. I added this supplement as I had heard of presumed benefits to the immune system. While this is obviously subjective, I can attest that, though I typically have clogged, runny sinuses from about September through March each year, I have yet to get even the slightest sniffle since starting this supplement from Bulk Supplements. My entire household has come down with runny noses and the children have intermittent sinus infections (the toddler has a constant craving for floor-spice). Guess who hasn't? This guy. Consequently, I'm also the only one supplementing glutamine. Coincidence? Maybe. But, I've never felt more healthy and ready to attack the day. My recovery in the gym seems nearly instantaneous with this supplement, coupled with a smart diet and plenty of sleep. It is worthy of note that the common benefits of glutamine supplementation are evident for those less-active individuals. I do my best to maintain optimal health. This supplement makes that job much easier through the many benefits I've experienced while using it. It is economically priced. As someone who has experience in biochemistry and organic chemistry, I can attest to this product's quality on a level that most people cannot. It is a fine, white powder that is without any particular flavor and maintains itself in suspension in any drink with ease. I will continue to order this supplement from Bulk Supplements so long as it is available at this (steal of a) price.

Very quick fullillment and delivery. And I love this product for how it helps my digestive tract stay healthy.

I'm going to give this five star. The company gives quality products for reasonable prices. I have only just started taking the Bulk glutamine brand, however, I've taken glutamine in the past and felt tremendous improvement with IBS/leaky bowel. One reason it works in intestinal repair because of being an essential nutrient, the most abundant amino acid in the body. Not my words, but the medical field. Quoting Dr. Axe, "L-glutamine benefits your health if you have any type of digestive issue, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), an inflammatory bowel disease like Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulosis, diverticulitis, leaky gut or any of the issues associated with leaky gut (like joint pain, rosacea or any type of autoimmune response), then you need this amino acid in your diet on a regular basis." It's tasteless and can be added to any liquid. Put it in your morning coffee, just a full quarter teaspoon, is all that is required. If once a day is all you can conveniently remember, it will still benefit you. It recommends up to three times a day. It's perfectly safe to take, unlike medications. The smallest package, which is what I purchased, will last for a very long time, 2.2 pounds. According to the GAPS diet publication by Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride, all disease/illness begins in the gut and we all are compromised because of the SAD (standard American diet). I highly recommend investigating her book. Socrates also claimed illness begins in the gut. Further information on this and additional benefits can be found on the web by searching "Dr. Axe....L-Glutamine Benefits Leaky gut". L-glutamine is recommended by many professionals for healing the gut and many other health issues. I hope these few thoughts may help someone find answers for their health concerns.

L-Glutamine is an essential amino acid for any serious lifter. I discovered glutamine powder after searching for something to offer quicker muscle recovery and reduced soreness. I began a regimen of 5000 mg of glutamine twice a day after reading recommendations from supplement companies. I take my first dose of glutamine in my post-workout protein shake. The taste is unnoticeable. I take my second dose of glutamine in about 12 ounces of water about an hour before I go to bed. When mixed with water, glutamine has a somewhat odd, maybe bitter, taste. I don't find it to be objectionable enough that I need to add it to anything flavored, however. Glutamine powder does not dissolve in water, so I swish it around in the glass to make sure I get all of it. BulkSupplements' L-Glutamine powder seems to be of excellent quality and is far finer in consistency than glutamine I have purchased from other manufacturers. The taste is the same, but I definitely tend to prefer the finer consistency as it goes down easier and doesn't have the gritty sand like texture that you end up chewing on later. My only minor complaint is that the resealable bag was pretty difficult to get resealed the first time. To allay this issue, I poured the kilogram of glutamine powder into a glass storage jar, Anchor Hocking Montana Storage Jar, Glass, 48-Ounce . It fits perfectly. As for the absence of a scoop, I did some trial and error. I had an extra 11 CC scoop from a pre-workout supplement I used to take. I found that a nearly full 11 CC scoop came out to almost exactly 5000 mg, which I checked using a highly sensitive scale. I suspect a 10 CC scoop would be just about perfect if you have one. All in all, I can't recommend BulkSupplements L-Glutamine powder enough if you are a serious lifter looking to increase muscle recovery so you can keep on lifting harder the next day. That's what it's all about, right?
