I searched around a bit, and there were some sort-of answers to this, but I figured I'd post a new topic anyway.
I've heard of the [supposed] safe advantages of glutamine, and my friend and I picked up some of the Vitamin Shoppe brand pills to try em out. Turns out each pill is only 500mg. I read you need something like 10g a day for best use? Guess I'd need to go to the powder.

I also read, however, that taking an all in one BCAA is better, because it stimulates your body's natural production of glutamine, and is more effective than straight glutamine.

Any comments / experiences with either?
