Glutamine is considered a conditionally essential amino acid,
because during periods of severe metabolic stress the body's
requirements of glutamine may exceed the individual's ability to
produce sufficient amounts of the amino acid. Strenuous training
may be associated with immune suppression. After long and hard
training, drop in plasma level of Glutamine can impaired immune
function. That makes you more susceptible  to cold and infections.
Falling sick may mean your progressive training cycle will be
halted half way, resulting discounted gain from your well planned
the cycle. As glutamine is the most preferred fuel by the immune
cells, taking Glutamine after training can help to overcome this
drop in Glutamine level to prevent the drop in immunity to reduce
the number of infectious complications due to hard training.

Glutamine is also the most abundant free form amino acid in the
muscle cells. It carry extra nitrogen atoms and can donate its
nitrogen atoms to other amino acids to support amino acids
metabolism. It has been proposed that if the free amino acids pool
in the muscle dropped, muscle catabolism will occur. Having a
good pool of Glutamine in the muscle cells support anabolism and
reduce catabolism.

Glutamine also support cells lining the digestive tracts to optimise
absorption by keeping the gut cells in good conditions. In fact,
glutamine is their most preferred fuel and glutamine serve as a
tonic to them.
