L-Glutamine Ultra 1100mg | 365 Capsules | German Elite Nutrition

L-Glutamine Ultra by German Elite Nutrition

Are you looking for a high-dose glutamine per capsule? German Elite Nutrition's L-glutamine Ultra provides 1100 mg per capsule. With six capsules, you reach 6600 mg per day. L-glutamine is an amino acid, one of the building blocks of proteins. One jar contains 365 capsules, so you'll be supplied for a good while with a fixed daily portion.

What L-glutamine is

L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in your body. You produce it yourself, especially in your muscles, and it is also found in protein-rich foods like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. Among athletes, glutamine is one of the most well-known amino acids. Many people take it as a standalone supplement alongside their daily protein intake, simply to supplement that intake without having to prepare a whole shake. These capsules contain pure L-glutamine, without flavors, sweeteners, or unnecessary fillers. Nothing but the essentials, nothing more. Powder requires a shaker, a scoop, and time to prepare everything. Capsules skip these steps: you take them out of the jar and swallow them with a gulp of water. For those who prefer not to taste their glutamine, this is a pleasant difference. You also know exactly what you're consuming, without weighing anything.

1100 mg per capsule, 6600 mg per daily serving

What distinguishes this variant is the dosage per capsule. At 1100 mg, it's more than many other glutamine capsules on the market, where 500 to 750 mg per capsule are common. This means you need fewer for the same amount. Six capsules together provide 6600 mg. Do the math: with a 500 mg capsule, you would need thirteen for the same 6600 mg. This way, you take your glutamine in capsule form, without weighing, preparing, or drinking powder. Convenient if you prefer to avoid the neutral and somewhat bland taste of glutamine powder. And convenient on the go: a small jar or a blister pack of capsules easily fits in your gym bag, whereas a sachet of powder plus a scoop are much less practical. The capsules themselves are a common size, so they are easy to swallow. For most people, spreading six units throughout the day means taking one with each meal. Those who prefer to take everything at once can also do so, although spreading it throughout the day is more common.

Bovine Gelatin Capsule

Good to know: the capsule shell is made from bovine gelatin. Therefore, this product is neither vegan nor vegetarian. If you're looking for a plant-based option, free glutamine powder is an alternative, as it consists of pure amino acid without a capsule around it. Besides gelatin, the capsule only contains a small amount of stearic acid as a release agent, a substance that prevents the powder from clumping in the machine during production. Nothing else: no colorants, no flavors, no preservatives. Bovine gelatin is a commonly used capsule material that dissolves in your stomach. Those who consciously eat plant-based would therefore choose powder, which comes entirely without a shell. The ingredient list is otherwise short and clear, exactly what you can expect from a pure amino acid product.

How to take L-glutamine in capsule form

The daily serving is six capsules, spread throughout the day with sufficient water. There is no fixed time. Some take them around meals, others around their workout, and still others simply spread them throughout the morning and afternoon. Choose what suits your rhythm. Preferably take the capsules with a good gulp of water, especially if you're taking several at once, as they will go down more easily. Since one jar contains 365 capsules, one package, at six per day, lasts a little over two months. If you want to take fewer capsules per day, a jar lasts even longer, although you will then reach a lower daily amount. This way, you determine how to distribute the jar and how long it lasts.

In short, L-glutamine Ultra is a high-dose glutamine capsule with 1100 mg per unit, intended for those who prefer to swallow glutamine rather than drink it. A jar of 365 capsules, at six per day, lasts a little over two months. This keeps your amino acid intake simple and clear, without powder, shaker, or scoop. A straightforward choice for your amino acid supply.
