Glutamine
OKG generates glutamine and arginine production in the
human body. Significantly increasing both IGF-1 and
growth hormone levels. Growth hormone is an important
anabolic hormone. The most important anabolic
hormone. It regulates the metabolic processes
(including protein synthesis) in almost all human
tissues. Growth hormone provokes several anabolic
actions on skeletal muscle: the uptake of glucose and
amino acids, activation of muscle protein synthesis,
suppression of muscle protein catabolism, and the
utilization of body fat for energy.
Clinical studies show glutamine elevates circulating
growth hormone levels. Keeping a consistently high level
of circulating growth hormone, you are able to combat
the catabolic effects of weight training, harness the
anabolic activity of increased glucose and amino acid
uptake, improve whole body nitrogen retention, and
increase lean tissue protein accrual.
