Effects of Glutamine Glutamine has been one of the most intensively studied nutrients in the field of nutrition support in recent years. Animal studies show that glutamine is effective against catabolic stress. Glutamine supplementation was shown to improve organ function, survival, or both in most published studies. These studies also have supported the concept that glutamine is a critical nutrient for the gut mucosa and immune cells. Recent molecular and protein chemistry studies are beginning to define the basic mechanism involved in glutamine action in the gut, liver, and other cells and organs.
