Glutamine

Andrew Huberman AI:

Glutamine is an essential amino acid that plays a role in regulating feeding and offsetting sugar cravings. In episode 16, I discuss how glutamine triggers the release of Cck to reduce activity in neurons that promote feeding. In episode 42, I explain how glutamine supplementation can offset cognitive decline caused by altitude and oxygen deprivation. In the guest series episode with Dr. Andy Galpin, we discuss the benefits of glutamine, including its role in recovery products and potential to offset sugar cravings.
