L-Glutamine and Carbs

[Conan21]

whats the verdict on this

Does taking L-Glutamine with Carbs prevent it from absorbing well? I've heard the best time to take this is post workout but most people use carbs in a post workout shake so doesn't this mess with Glutamines absorbability?

I've never heard of this.

My Naturopath was prescribing L-Glutamine for intensine health. He said to take it separately from Protein as Proitein would interfer with absorbtion.

I found that you can substitute glutamine for carbs in a post workout shake. The glutamine raises blood sugar levels through another pathway. Take a diabetic test strip and test yourself in a fasted state, then ingest 20g glutamine and do the test again. You'll see what I mean.
