It's a very controversial topic. You have some great Drs who are against it and some who are for it.
Dr Rusell Blaylock is very much against it:
"I do not recommend supplementing with glutamine because it is converted to the excitotoxin glutamate and has been shown to worsen certain neurodegenerative diseases. Though it has become a popular supplement for gastrointestinal repair, many studies do not support this indication.
Pyruvate is superior in gut repair and is safe. It also protects the brain against excitotoxicity, while whey protein contains high levels of glutamate and could worsen excitotoxicity."
