can anyone having experience taking glutamine powder by "Body Fortress" tell me if they saw any results from taking it. did it give you any growth or strength or energy benefits.

Was it the stuff from Walmart?

Or is it a Met-Rx brand?

walmart i am ashamed to say.

Well I have tried their creatine with Taurine in it, and I am not ashamed to say that it works decent and tastes really good. I would try it, definitely for the price!

thanks trickD, and keep up the good work on your training.

**Peaked_18** · 10-25-2005, 11:11 PM

I heard about it, but I have not seen it.

Their products are very good, a lot use them and they are some of the best ones out there IMO.

I believe from what I heard it's like 300g of Glutamine for $9 and there is 66 servings or so...correct?

Did you read the label?

**NewSpawn** · 10-25-2005, 11:34 PM

that is correct and they suggest your take it 1 or 2 servings a day, a serving being 1 teaspoon. i am hoping it will help in sync with protein intake and maybe prompt more growth, provided i keep training hard. oh and by the way i am reading your 3 big lifts article , i am enjoying it and hoping to get some hints on how to raise my deadlift weight.

I'm not a fan of glutamine, but if you've already bought it then it sounds like a pretty good deal.

How much is in a serving? I would get at least 10g a day so a container would last ~ 1 month.

Glad you enjoy it, it is a very good read.

A lot aren't fans, but many say it increases their recovery ability.

Varies per person...

If you are taking in enough protein per day (1-1.5g per lb) then glutamine becomes a little overkill. However, if itr works for you, then stick with it. I just tend to stick with the basics when it comes to supplements.
