Information:
The three herbs in Glutagenics™-- glutamine, deglycyrrhizinized licorice (DGL), and aloe vera -- support the integrity and function of the stomach and intestines. A healthy intestinal lining is essential for proper digestion, immune function, and liver function.
Glutagenics supplies 3.5 grams of the amino acid glutamine, which provides both a source of fuel and precursors for growth to the rapidly dividing cells of the intestinal lining. As the most abundant amino acid found in muscle, glutamine also plays an important role in muscle recovery as an anti-catabolic nutrient.
The concentrated extract of DGL in Glutagenics™ supplies a spectrum of flavonoids, as confirmed by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), that protect gut mucosal integrity.
The licorice has been processed to remove glycyrrhizin, which eliminates the risk of side effects associated with adrenal cortical axis suppression (mineralocorticoid activity) that rarely occurs with licorice consumption.
The premium extract of aloe leaf is standardized to 50% polysaccharides, which promote healthy mucous membranes of the intestinal lining. The proprietary extraction process removes the bitter principles of aloe to prevent a laxative effect.
