During intense sessions muscles can lose a substantial share of their glutamine stores, undermining recovery, immunity and gut health in the hours that follow. Mutant Glutamine replenishes those stores with 5g of 100% pure, vegan fermented, micronised L-glutamine per scoop — zero fillers, zero flavours, lab tested, 60 serves per 300g tub.

On heavy training days a second serve intra-workout alongside your aminos is a common addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy does glutamine matter if I'm already eating enough protein?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtein provides amino acids, but glutamine specifically is drawn on so heavily by muscles, immune cells and the gut during training that dietary protein alone often can't keep pace with demand. Free-form glutamine replenishes stores faster than the glutamine in food because it doesn't require full digestion — it's absorbed directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for vegans?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — 100% plant-based vegan fermented glutamine, no animal by-products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes it have any taste?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirtually none. It's one of the most neutral-tasting supplements available, which is exactly why it disappears into any drink without affecting the flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I take it on rest days?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and you probably should. Glutamine's role in immune function and gut health is ongoing rather than purely post-exercise, so consistent daily use is more valuable than dosing only around training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I still need it if my EAA product already contains glutamine?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany EAA formulas include a small amount of glutamine inside their support amino blend. A standalone glutamine is for people who want a higher dedicated dose on top of that, or who want to take it at specific times — before bed, for instance — without drinking a full EAA serve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mutant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51039342395559,"sku":"TMUM7113S","price":39.9,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0440\/2420\/1383\/files\/mutant-glutamine-topdog-nutrition-3310797_77310c79-5ca7-4f86-befb-5c398a943b0f.png?v=1785378808","url":"https:\/\/www.eatmesupplements.co.nz\/products\/mutant-glutamine","provider":"Eat Me Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
