Why take a glutamine cure?

L-glutamine plays a fundamental role in:

• repair of the intestinal barrier , particularly in cases of porosity (or "leaky gut")
  
• the renewal of intestinal epithelial cells
  
• immune system support
  
• reduction of chronic inflammation

While the body can produce it naturally, certain factors such as stress, an unbalanced diet, medical treatments, or intense physical activity can cause its reserves to drop. In these cases, a treatment can provide real support.

How long does it take for an effective treatment?

In general, an L-glutamine treatment lasts 4 to 6 weeks . This duration allows the body to:

• support the strengthening of tight junctions (structural elements of the intestinal barrier)
• promote cell renewal of the digestive mucosa
  
• initiate an overall improvement in digestive comfort , vitality and even skin condition
  

In case of deeper or chronic imbalances, the treatment can be extended up to 8 weeks , always with the advice of a health professional.

How often should I repeat a treatment?

It is entirely possible to integrate glutamine into a well-being routine in the form of one-off treatments , for example:

• after antibiotic treatment
  
• as the seasons change
  
• during periods of intense stress or persistent fatigue.

Two treatments per year may be enough to preserve the balance of the intestinal barrier and prevent digestive or skin imbalances.

When can you see the first effects?

The effects of glutamine are often felt after 1 to 2 weeks of regular treatment:

• improvement of digestive comfort
• reduction of bloating or intestinal discomfort,
• energy boost
• clearer and brighter skin
  

L-glutamine works deep down and consistency is essential.

At AIME, the Barrier+ ™ formula has been specially formulated to address intestinal hyperpermeability. This L-glutamine-based dietary supplement is often the first step in a wellness routine, restoring the intestinal barrier and improving the absorption of other nutrients.

Good reflexes to accompany the treatment

• Adopt an anti-inflammatory diet (less gluten, refined sugars, ultra-processed foods) and rich in fiber and raw foods
• Manage your stress with gentle movement (yoga, Pilates, breathing)
• Support the microbiota with fiber and probiotics
