The effect of acute L-alanyl-L-glutamine (AG) ingestion on selected hormonal and electrolyte measures was examined during repetitive, short duration, high intensity exercise with mild hypohydration. Subjects (20.3±1.1 yrs; 180.3±10.4 cm; 83.1±14.0 kg; 11.6±3.6% body fat) reported to the Human Performance Laboratory on four occasions. During each tr...

The effect of acute L-alanyl-L-glutamine (AG; Sustamine) ingestion on performance changes and markers of fluid regulation, immune, inflammatory, oxidative stress, and recovery was examined in response to exhaustive endurance exercise, during and in the absence of dehydration. Ten physically active males (20.8 +/- 0.6 y; 176.8 +/- 7.2 cm; 77.4 +/- 1...

... Forty-four full text articles were removed for methodological concerns including no body mass change measures (n = 17), allowing water or other fluids before trials (n = 18), participants primarily undergoing energy restriction rather than acute dehydration (n = 4), outside of age range (n = 1), case study (n = 1), arrived dehydrated (n = 1), microgravity (n = 1) as well as an inability to access two articles. Nineteen studies were removed due to inability to contact the corresponding author or inability to access raw data means and standard deviations [24,37,52,53,56,[65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79]. Twenty-one articles [24,30,36,49,65,[80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94][95] met all inclusion criteria and were included in this review ( Figure 1). ...
... Hoffman et al, 98 reported that L-alanyl l Glutamine supplements show that the fatigue retardant also provides ergogenic support. It can be said that the most likely cause fluid and electrolyte flow with ergogenic effects. ...
... The small intestine has membrane transporters depending on the amino acid or peptide ingested, some of which co-transport sodium. For example, glutamine or alanine appear to potentially increase electrolyte/water absorption following acute infection [21,22] or exercise [23]. Substituting amino acids for carbohydrate in ORS has recently been suggested as a potential advantage for ORS [14,19] due to the carrier-mediated amino acid transport for intestinal absorption of sodium and water but without the added calories from sugars in the beverage [17]. ...
