Abstract

This article aims to analyze the relationship between glutamine supplementation and the impairment of the immune system of young athletes, seeking to understand the extent to which glutamine deficiency influences the impairment of the immune system and increased susceptibility to infections in young people. This is a bibliographic review based on a qualitative survey of data whose question leading the research was the metabolic process of glutamine and its potentializing function of the immune system of young athletes. It is perceived the need, during catabolic/hypercatabolic circumstances, due to the physical effort perceived by young athletes, to have the appropriate supplementation of this amino acid, as its demand increases dramatically, leading to a deprivation of glutamine and a serious impairment of function of these athletes. It emerged from the research carried out that immune cells depend largely on the availability of this amino acid to survive, proliferate and function in the protection of our organism against pathogens.
