What exactly is glutamine used for?

Glutamine affects BCAA metabolism, gut barrier maintenance, normal immune function, glucose formation, water transport, neurotransmission, helps regulate protein synthesis and breakdown. One study found that when athletes suffered from mild dehydration, supplemental glutamine increased exercise performance and enhanced fluid and electrolyte uptake when combined with a glucose and electrolyte beverage. Supplementation has also been shown to raise levels of growth hormone.
