It has been reported that glutamine administered intravenously to patients following surgery have reported that glutamine can be effective at preventing protein breakdown. Consequently, glutamine supplementation may be of benefit in the context of rehabilitation from injury (Antonio et al., 1999). Furthermore the fact that glutamine is a fuel for certain cells of the immune system may indicate that glutamine may facilitate immune function. In endurance athletes one study reported that athletes supplemented with glutamine experienced a reduced incidence of infections in the days following strenuous training and competition (Castell et al., 1996). It is known that glutamine levels can decline with stress (Lacey et al., 1990), consequently it would seem that glutamine is most likely to be of benefit during periods of intense exercise or bodily stress.
