Hi.
Were you still drinking when glutamine healed your gut last time?
It's such a high dose but yeh I keep getting told glutamine for gut healing to.

Yes! Ella you should definitely try it. There are studies on glutamine that prove it heals ulcers. I have something similar to an ulcer (doctor said but never did an endoscopy) but I don't have the h.pylori virus. I did the awful poop test to verify that one lol. Here are some of the results of a few case studies in one article: http://www.healthy.net/scr/article.aspx?Id=2844

It healed in about 4 weeks when I was taking 10g a day (5g morning/night) and I was not drinking during the 4 weeks. But then I went to vegas and I could tell it wasn't completely healed - I needed more time, but the trip date was already set. But I can say I had a lot more enjoyable experience drinking, but I made sure not to drink TOO much each night. And I think some of my symptoms came back (but not bad) because after my vegas trip, I took just 5g a day and I wasn't sticking to the diet (no spicy foods, fatty/greasy foods, chocolate, etc.). Now, I am trying to take it more seriously by taking 30g a day and not drinking for a while or at least if I do, I'll only have two drinks max. I want to heal my stomach completely. But I have been eating a lot of spicy foods and chocolate recently. I just got myself up to the 30g dose so now I am going to limit my spicy foods.

But I have been taking glutamine for quite a few months and I haven't had any really bad symptoms like I was having before (fullness, not able to eat, belching ALL day) even with drinking and taking some nsaids for cramps.
Also, I had my boyfriend take 5g a day too and he said after a night of drinking he could tell a difference. He used to get terrible stomach problems for a day or two after drinking and be in the bathroom almost all day the next day.

Maybe you should try and see how it goes for you. I don't know of any adverse side effects from taking glutamine and if taking a high dose like 30g scares you, then just know that even 5g showed results. And I think I have read somewhere that 2g is enough to heal ulcers.
I got this one from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/MET-Rx-L-Glutamine-Diet-Supplement-Powder/dp/B005JMDLW8/ref=sr_1_13?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1456191435&sr=1-13&keywords=glutamine+powder
I tried the Now brand before this one and that one was good but the taste of this one is a little better and it's cheaper too.
