This is soooo confussing. ALSO...whats the diff between L glutamine and glutamine..what does this "L" stand for.


500mg = .5g You need two of those pills for one gram. Powder really is a better deal - 10g of glutamine would mean a whole lotta pill popping.

There is no difference between glutamine and l-glutamine. The "L" in front of any amino acid means that it is naturally occuring. The body can use only amino acids that have the structure that bends light to the left (levo). These amino acids are designated by the letter "L" preceding their names (this distinguishes them from the D or synthetic amino acids.)
