L-Glutamine Remedies and Cures

IBS
Posted by Dr. Brandeis (San Francisco, Ca) on 10/28/2010

Glutamine works in 2 ways. First, it is the preferred source of fuel for enterocytes- the cells that line the small intestine. Second, it increases sIgA (secretory immunoglobulin A), an important immune cell. If the IBS is caused by an infection such as yeast or parasites, Glutamine will be helpful. However, symptomatic relief from glutamine should make you consider testing for parasites- but not through conventional labs such as Quest or Labcorp. The best lab I've found and use with all of my patients is Metametrix. -Dr. Andrew Brandeis

Hi everybody! Can anyone tell me please, if humic acids interfere with the absorption of L-glutamine or quercetin in the treatment of intestinal problems?

Thanks a lot! Micaela

Statins do way more harm than good and they end lives more than they save. The fundamental problem is that many MD's give patients the idea they get a free pass to eat unhealthy foods and live a toxic lifestyle, just take your statins. Getting off statin drugs is the first step - together with healthy whole unprocessed foods + healthy living.

I've been experiencing gastritis for about nine months. This was brought on after persistent giardia and antibiotics. Glutamine and olive leaf extract both help, and recently I've found that pine nut oil is helpful too. None of these have cured me of my problem but all have helped. I'm going to try Cayenne, ACV and Aloe Vera now that I've found this site.

Hi... can anyone confirm if l-glutamine is good or bad for people who are very sensitive to MSG. i have read on this site that it is an antidote to msg and that it displaces it. however on many other sites it says to avoid it if you are sensitive to MSG. can someone please clarify?

Hi Carol

It's so good to hear that the l-glutamine worked for you. What dose did you take? And was this only in the morning?

Hi, may I please ask what your colon cleanse products did you use to eradicate candida? Thanks


Rectal Prolapse

Did the prolapse go away? Did you decide not to do surgery? The internet says that surgery is the only option but there has to be alternative. I have the beginning stages due to IBS c. After the panic subsided I started on fiber, amino acids, and tons of water and it seemed to do the trick so far.
