Matt Kelly explains how glutamine fuels your gut cells, supports your microbiome, strengthens your intestinal barrier, and triggers immune responses that cut inflammation.
Chapters
So when we look at glutamine, it's also secondarily supporting all those GI cells by supporting the GI microbiome. So we have it as an energy source for these high-energy demand cells. We have it as a protective barrier supplement. So it's going to help with the protective immunologic activity. And we have it as a support to the microbiome, which is going to support all of those other functions. As a matter of fact, the better your microbiome is, the less damage and inflammation you'll have. So it's sort of like a little circle of life in there with glutamine holding everything together.
