What is Scitec Nutrition Mega Glutamine?
Scitec Nutrition Mega Glutamine is a pure L-glutamine supplement in capsule form. Each capsule provides 1400mg of L-glutamine, and the recommended serving of 2 capsules provides 2800mg. L-glutamine makes up 89% of the capsule content, so one 120-capsule pack provides 60 servings.
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid circulating in the blood. In some situations it can become conditionally essential, for example during intensive physical training, when the body can no longer fully meet its needs by synthesising glutamine itself. Scitec notes that this conditionally essential amino acid can be supplied through dietary protein and through supplements such as Mega Glutamine.
The capsule format makes the dose simple and quick: two capsules with a large glass of water, with nothing to measure and no powder to mix. The recommended use is 1 serving (2 capsules) per day, after training or before going to bed.
The capsule shell contains gelatin, a shellac glazing and iron oxide colour, and the formula has no flavourings or sweeteners.
Pure L-glutamine. Two capsules. After training or before bed.

🧬 2800mg of L-glutamine per serving
Each 2-capsule serving provides 2800mg of L-glutamine, which is 1400mg per capsule. L-glutamine is the main active, making up 89% of the capsule content.
🩸 The most abundant amino acid in the blood
Scitec points out that glutamine is the most abundant amino acid circulating in the blood, and that it can become conditionally essential in situations such as intensive training, when the body cannot meet its needs by synthesis alone.
💧 Simple dosing in capsules
There is no powder to measure and nothing to mix. You take 2 capsules with a large glass of water, which makes it easy to carry and to fit into a training bag.
🕐 Two flexible moments
The label recommends the serving after training or before going to bed, so you can choose whichever fits your routine.
📦 120 capsules — 60 servings
At one serving a day, one pack lasts 60 days, so there is very little re-ordering.
🎯 Goal guide
🏋️ Intensive training: 2 capsules after the session, as part of a daily recovery routine.
🌙 Evening routine: 2 capsules before bedtime, on days when you prefer an evening habit.
🥛 Protein and amino acid users: 2 capsules a day alongside your usual protein shakes and amino acid products.
Serving suggestion
Take 1 serving (2 capsules) per day with a large glass of water, after training or before going to bed. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from light, out of reach of children. Not suitable for children. Food supplements should not replace a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Best times to enjoy it
🏋️ After training (primary recommendation)
Take the 2 capsules right after your session with a large glass of water. This is the timing most often given for Mega Glutamine.
🌙 Before bedtime
The label gives before bedtime as the alternative. It works well on rest days, when there is no training session to anchor the dose.
💧 Always with a large glass of water
Swallow the capsules with a large glass of water, as recommended on the label.

Q1 — What is glutamine and why is it called conditionally essential?
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid circulating in the blood. The body produces it, so it is not essential in the strict sense. According to Scitec, it can become conditionally essential in some situations, notably intensive training, when the body can no longer cover its needs by its own synthesis.
Q2 — Why choose capsules rather than the glutamine powder?
Mega Glutamine provides 2800mg of L-glutamine per 2 capsules, and the dose is fixed and convenient. Scitec L-Glutamine powder provides 6000mg per 6g serving (half a scoop). The capsules are easier to carry and need no mixing, while the powder gives a larger dose and costs less per gram. The choice is mostly about convenience.
Q3 — When should I take it?
The label recommends 1 serving (2 capsules) per day, after training or before going to bed, with a large glass of water.
Q4 — Is Mega Glutamine suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
No. The capsule shell contains gelatin and shellac, an insect-derived glazing agent. The L-glutamine itself has no animal ingredient declared, but the capsule does.
Q5 — Can I combine it with BCAAs, whey and other amino acids?
Yes, there is no known conflict. Several products in the range already contain glutamine, such as BCAA + Glutamine Xpress and the whey protein formulas, so check the combined intake if you use several. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose of this product.
