glutamine and protein absorption

[david5]

read somewhere once that protein and glutamine compete for absorption and shouldn;t be taken together. any truth to this???

[tiptoe]

its l glutamine that doesn't absorb when taken with protein but peptide bonded glutamine does. if your just taking l glutamine to make sure its absorbed properly I would take it first thing in the morning before breakfast and straight after training and maybe before bed if your budget permits.
