What does it do?

L-Glutamine is an amino acid that is naturally produced in our body and is used to support gastrointestinal health. It is included in digestive supplements to protect the gastric mucosa and improve digestive function. It mainly serves as an energy source for gastric mucosal cells.

L-Glutamine provides nutrition to gastric mucosal cells, helping to recover and protect damaged mucosa. Additionally, it stabilizes the internal environment of the digestive system, facilitating smooth digestive function. This helps alleviate gastric discomfort and enhance digestive power.
