Glutamine. It Doesn't Work! (deal with it)

[ham2]

I'm not a dope.
while i might try NAG or whatever else, they will not con me into buying very expensive supplements where 50%+ of the weight are cheap sugars.
Sofar there's not one producer of NAG alone, to my knowledge, except bulk producers.
The di-tri-oligo peptide fairy tale is ages old.
Bonding glutamine with one, two or three aminos to enhance absorption.
As far as i know, they say peptide based stuff as GH etc will get hydrolyzated and/or the peptides will be dissolved in its components, ex glutamine & glycine etc.

It's hydrolisis. And hydrolisis involves the conversion of molecular bonded sugars into glucose, nothing to do with peptides etc.. For example, lactose gets converted to glucose via hydrolisis.

sure
from idros & luo ( or luomay ), that is "sweat" or humidity + "solve"/dissolve
i did study greek & latin at school as well.
and given we're here, "oligos" means " few chosen ones", hence oligopeptides, oligarchy etc.

Do not assume everybody's a third grader.

Irrespective of this, i read so many times like

************
In simplified terms, hydrolisis is the splitting of a large molecule into several smaller molecules through a combination of heat, churning, acidic and enzymatic actions
************

i've read of this process involving enzymes, bacteria & all sort of reagents + all sorts of compounds ( protein, chemicals etc ), hence not only sugars. In geology i think hydrolization means interaction between minerals & acids, meant to form new minerals.

This said, i read many times polipeptides (= more than one peptide ) get affected by the GI process & no longer ( like GH & other compounds) perform as expected.
