I have been taking L-Glutamine for about a month now. about 500-1000 mg daily. I took it to help with acid reflux, which it does. However, I also noticed that I have been really tired lately and gained about 5-6 pounds. I think it also makes me lethargic if I take it during the day.

Anyone else had similar experience with it ?

i've never had that problem with l-glutamine.
have you had your vitamin b12 levels checked lately? i don't know about weight gain, but if your levels are too low it will definitely leave you feeling tired on a constant basis.

My b-12 and folate levels were checked recently and they were normal.
