Benefits of L-Glutamic acid powder
As for Glutamic acid, also called ‘chemical messenger’, it has been shown to help improve intelligence. Since it is also a messenger in human brain, it is able to enhance a clarity of thinking, mental alertness, and mood. That is why this amino acid has been used to help treat Parkinson’s, fatigue, mental retardation, schizophrenia, muscular dystrophy, and alcoholism. Besides, it is believed to help shuttle potassium (an important mineral) across the blood-brain barrier and right into the spinal fluid.
Glutamic acid is also known for its ability to detoxify muscle cells. For example, when intense exercise leads to increasing levels of ammonia in muscle cells (which slows down a recovery), just as in the brain, this amino acid attaches itself to ammonia in order to form Glutamine. Besides, Glutamic acid is acting as an intermediary in the Kreb’s cycle and is important for the carbohydrate metabolism.
While it is rarely necessary to supplement l-glutamic acid, Providence Health reports that those who are deficient in protein may require supplementation. However, it is not meant to be taken by everyone. L-glutamic acid stimulates the brain’s glutamate receptors. Because there may be a link between this stimulation in the brain and a few types of neurological conditions, such as epilepsy, you should not take the supplement if you have any nervous system disorders. In addition, you should also avoid L-glutamic acid if you have kidney or liver disease.
