- Glutamine 5g
BodyWorld
Glutamine 400 g
100% micronised L-glutamine with no unnecessary additives, suitable for both strength and endurance athletes. L-glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body, stored and synthesised primarily in skeletal muscle. It is classified as a conditionally essential amino acid – under normal circumstances, the body can only produce it in limited quantities, making supplementation particularly important during intense physical stress. During intensive exercise, the body consumes L-glutamine daily by depleting it from muscle protein, which may slow down post-workout muscle recovery.
BodyWorld Glutamine - 100% micronised L-glutamine of the highest quality
BodyWorld Glutamine is 100% micronised L-glutamine with no unnecessary additives. L-glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body, stored and synthesised primarily in skeletal muscle. It is classified as a conditionally essential amino acid – since the body can only produce it in small amounts, supplementation is important for maintaining a positive nitrogen balance. During intensive physical performance, the body consumes L-glutamine daily, drawing it from muscle proteins, which can lead to muscle catabolism and delayed recovery. By regularly supplying L-glutamine from an external source, we prevent this negative effect. Thanks to its micronised form, BodyWorld Glutamine features excellent solubility and easy dosing within an athlete's daily nutritional regimen.

Directions of use
Mix 1 serving (1 scoop = 5 g) in 300 to 400 ml of water and consume 30 minutes before or during your workout. For best results, use daily.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is L-Glutamine and what is it used for?
L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body, stored and synthesised primarily in skeletal muscle. It is classified as a conditionally essential amino acid, meaning that under normal circumstances, the body can only produce it in limited amounts. During intense physical activity, these stores are quickly depleted as the body draws from muscle protein, which can slow down recovery. BodyWorld Glutamine provides 5000 mg of 100% micronised L-Glutamine per serving, helping to maintain a positive nitrogen balance for athletes.
How should I take BodyWorld Glutamine?
One serving is 1 scoop (5 g), which should be mixed with 300 to 400 ml of water. Consume it 30 minutes before or during your workout. For best results, we recommend daily use, including on rest days. A 400 g tub provides 80 servings, enough for approximately 80 days of supplementation when taking one serving per day.
When is the best time to take glutamine – morning, evening, or around workouts?
The manufacturer recommends taking BodyWorld Glutamine 30 minutes before or during your workout, mixed in 300–400 ml of water. For maximum effect, it is beneficial to follow a regular daily dosing schedule, including on non-training days, to ensure the body has a constant supply of this amino acid to support recovery and protect muscle protein. The specific time of day is not critical; consistency is what matters most.
Does BodyWorld Glutamine contain allergens or gluten?
No, BodyWorld Glutamine contains no allergens. The formula consists exclusively of 100% free-form L-Glutamine with no added fillers, colours, sugar, or other unnecessary ingredients. The product is unflavoured and therefore free from sweeteners and flavourings, making it suitable for those with sensitivities to common allergens found in supplements.
Is BodyWorld Glutamine suitable for vegans and vegetarians?
Yes, the product is suitable for vegans and vegetarians as it contains 100% free-form L-Glutamine without any ingredients of animal origin, fillers, or other additives. It is a pure amino acid produced through a micronisation process that improves solubility and absorption. It is also lactose-free and gluten-free, making it a universally suitable supplement for a wide range of consumers.
Can I combine BodyWorld Glutamine with protein or creatine?
Yes, L-Glutamine can be easily combined with protein supplements and creatine, as they are distinct substances with different mechanisms of action. Glutamine supports recovery and muscle protein maintenance, creatine enhances strength performance, and protein supplements help meet daily protein intake goals. Since the product is unflavoured, it can easily be added to a protein shake or taken separately in water.
What is the difference between glutamine and BCAA?
Glutamine and BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine, valine) are different amino acids with distinct functions. BCAAs are directly involved in protein synthesis and are used up more rapidly during training, whereas glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and is primarily important for recovery, maintaining nitrogen balance, and preventing muscle protein breakdown after exercise. Both supplements can be combined, as they complement rather than replace one another in sports nutrition.
Is BodyWorld Glutamine flavoured or does it contain sugar?
BodyWorld Glutamine is unflavoured and, according to nutritional data, contains 0 g of carbohydrates, including 0 g of sugar per 5 g serving. The energy value of one serving is 20 kcal, derived entirely from 5 g of protein (L-Glutamine). The product contains no sweeteners, colours, or flavourings, making it easy to add to water or other drinks without affecting the taste.
Why is micronised glutamine better than the standard form?
Micronised L-Glutamine has a smaller particle size, which significantly improves its solubility in water and reduces the risk of the powder settling at the bottom of your drink. This also ensures better absorption by the body and makes dosing easier for an athlete's daily nutrition. BodyWorld Glutamine is 100% micronised, ensuring it mixes quickly in 300–400 ml of water without clumping.
Are there any side effects associated with taking glutamine?
L-Glutamine is a safe amino acid that occurs naturally in the body and in common foods. When following the recommended dosage (1 serving of 5 g per day mixed in 300–400 ml of water), healthy individuals typically do not experience any side effects. The product does not contain any allergens or unnecessary additives. Individuals with kidney or liver disease, as well as pregnant or breastfeeding women, should consult a doctor before use.
How long does it take to see results when taking glutamine?
The specific timeframe for results depends on your individual physical exertion, diet, and recovery needs. Glutamine primarily supports recovery and muscle protein maintenance during intense training, so its effects become apparent gradually with consistent daily use over several weeks. For best results, we recommend a consistent daily intake rather than sporadic use only around workouts.
Is BodyWorld Glutamine suitable for endurance athletes, not just bodybuilders?
Yes, the product is intended for and suitable for both strength and endurance athletes. During prolonged endurance exercise, the body also uses up significant stores of L-Glutamine, which can affect recovery and nitrogen balance. Supplementing with 5000 mg of L-Glutamine per serving helps compensate for these losses, regardless of the type of training, whether it is strength-based or endurance-based.
Directions of use
Mix 1 serving (1 scoop = 5 g) in 300 to 400 ml of water and consume 30 minutes before or during your workout. For best results, use daily.
