Glutamine per Obesity

C

RCT (n=66) found 30 g/day reduced weight and waist circumference comparably to isonitrogenous protein control. Systematic review of 7 trials found improved inflammatory markers and gut barrier function in obese patients. Evidence is preliminary but growing, with benefits potentially mediated through the gut-metabolic axis.
