What is L-glutamine?
L-glutamine is a proteinogenic amino acid that serves as a building block for the body's own proteins. Proteinogenic means exactly that: protein-forming. L-glutamine is not essential for the body, as it can be produced from the amino acid glutamic acid if required[1].
However, as the body's own production is not sufficient under certain circumstances, an L-glutamine def iciency can occur. To avoid L-glutamine deficiency symptoms , the body should be supplied with a sufficient amount of L-glutamine. This can be done through food, but also by taking L-glutamine as a dietary supplement.
Which foods contain L-glutamine?
As a protein building block, L-glutamine is primarily found in protein-rich foods. As it is found in both plant and animal foods, vegetarians and vegans can also get a good supply of L-glutamine from their diet:[2]
Oatmeal
wheat flour
pasta
spelt
lentils
Soybeans
cheese
Fillet of beef
Pork
Fish (e.g. tuna, caviar, mackerel)
