TLDRDr. Mike highlights several supplements that many people might be wasting money on, including amino acids, beta alanine, BCAAs, and glutamine. He argues that amino acid powders are often less effective than whole whey protein, beta alanine may have limited uses for specific athletes, BCAAs prevent muscle loss without promoting growth, and glutamine is unnecessary for those without digestive issues. Instead of spending on these supplements, Dr. Mike recommends sticking with whey protein and investing in proper training resources.

Punti di forza

  • 💡 Amino acid powders are often less effective than whey protein.
  • 🏃‍♂️ Beta alanine is mostly beneficial for middle-distance runners.
  • ❌ BCAAs prevent muscle loss but do not enhance growth.
  • 🧬 Glutamine is unnecessary for most unless you have digestive issues.
  • 💰 Save money by avoiding ineffective supplements altogether.

Linea temporale

  • 00:00:00 - 00:05:00

    Dr. Mike discusses the reality that many supplements are less effective than advertised, and consumers might be wasting money. He notes that a significant percentage of supplements sold don't provide measurable benefits, emphasizing the need to prioritize quality over marketing hype and urges viewers to dig into reputable scientific research before spending on supplements.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    The discussion highlights specific supplements starting with amino acid powders, which are less effective and more expensive when compared to whole protein sources like whey. Dr. Mike argues that individual amino acids can be absorbed better from whole proteins, suggesting that consumers stick with whey protein instead of spending on amino acid products.

  • 00:10:00 - 00:15:00

    Next, Dr. Mike covers beta-alanine, a supplement often marketed for endurance athletes. He explains the supplement's delayed effects and emphasizes the need for long-term usage to see any benefits. While it may slightly enhance performance for certain athletes, particularly in middle-distance events, he argues there are better investments such as creatine that have more consistent results.

  • 00:15:00 - 00:23:07

    Dr. Mike critiques branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), stating they don't promote muscle growth but do help prevent muscle loss. He suggests that complete protein sources already contain BCAAs and provide additional benefits. Finally, he dismisses glutamine as ineffective for muscle growth and recommended only for specific gut health scenarios, urging viewers to focus on high-quality protein instead.

Video Domande e Risposte

  • Do amino acid powders work better than whey protein?

    No, amino acid powders are less effective than whole whey protein, as your body can absorb undigested whey protein more effectively.

  • Is beta alanine beneficial for all athletes?

    Beta alanine is primarily beneficial for middle-distance runners but may not provide clear advantages for other types of athletes.

  • Do BCAAs help in building muscle?

    BCAAs can prevent muscle loss but do not help to build muscle. Complete protein sources like whey provide the necessary amino acids for muscle growth.

  • Should I take glutamine if I'm not a bodybuilder?

    If you don't have any digestive problems, glutamine supplementation is generally unnecessary.

  • What are better alternatives to these supplements?

    Opt for whole food sources of protein, such as whey protein, and invest in reputable fitness training apps or resources instead.

    you're actually paying extra for a less
  • 00:00:03
    effective product and at best a
  • 00:00:05
    similarly effective product but you're
  • 00:00:06
    paying more money and supplement
  • 00:00:08
    companies love it no offense to
  • 00:00:09
    supplement companies they're doing a
  • 00:00:10
    great job in most cases if you talk to
  • 00:00:12
    the CEOs they're like look people buy
  • 00:00:13
    them you know and they're not bad it's
  • 00:00:15
    tough for supplement companies to stop
  • 00:00:17
    selling you BS if you just keep
  • 00:00:18
    demanding and buying
  • 00:00:21
    BS hey folks Dr Mike here for the RP
  • 00:00:25
    strength YouTube channel welcome hello
  • 00:00:27
    how are you good Dr Mike where doing
  • 00:00:30
    great oh okay
  • 00:00:32
    sweet good news bad news many of the
  • 00:00:35
    supplements that you are currently using
  • 00:00:36
    and yes this was a Jedi mind
  • 00:00:38
    trick might be worthless what but uh but
  • 00:00:42
    they cost money and I expect them to
  • 00:00:43
    work let's dig in and make sure we're
  • 00:00:46
    using the right stuff and not the wrong
  • 00:00:48
    stuff so it turns out that most
  • 00:00:50
    supplements when you walk into a normal
  • 00:00:52
    health food store you know like where
  • 00:00:54
    the lady that sells them is very sweet
  • 00:00:56
    but clearly peaked in the' 70s as far as
  • 00:00:58
    her intellectual understanding of the
  • 00:01:00
    world she has um you know all her
  • 00:01:02
    astrological signs on display that sort
  • 00:01:04
    of
  • 00:01:05
    thing most of those supplements in that
  • 00:01:08
    store most 90 some percent do nothing
  • 00:01:11
    measurable in the human body whatsoever
  • 00:01:13
    I know it sucks but she's a sweet lady a
  • 00:01:16
    lot of people in the fitness industry
  • 00:01:18
    especially in the evidence-based sphere
  • 00:01:19
    kind of know that part already like okay
  • 00:01:21
    find all these grasses or whatever these
  • 00:01:23
    African roots and flowers don't do shit
  • 00:01:25
    fine we knew that but Fitness folks
  • 00:01:30
    still use some supplements and still
  • 00:01:32
    discuss some supplements on Moss at
  • 00:01:35
    large that do hardly anything at all or
  • 00:01:39
    possibly nothing and this isn't just me
  • 00:01:42
    on swag points this is measured
  • 00:01:44
    scientific studies that say this doesn't
  • 00:01:46
    do anything many of them almost all of
  • 00:01:49
    them so I'm going to give you four
  • 00:01:52
    supplements today and we're going to
  • 00:01:53
    chat about each one of these four
  • 00:01:54
    supplements that maybe you could stop
  • 00:01:57
    taking or consider stopping taking so
  • 00:01:58
    you can stop wasting your money because
  • 00:02:01
    above all else even though I'm an
  • 00:02:02
    exercise science professional I'm also
  • 00:02:04
    genetically a Jewish which means if
  • 00:02:07
    you're wasting money it hurts me
  • 00:02:08
    personally a deep level maybe it'll be
  • 00:02:11
    even difficult for you to comprehend so
  • 00:02:13
    let's go through this list first on our
  • 00:02:16
    list and sorry if I hit up your
  • 00:02:17
    favorites might be you know you can't
  • 00:02:21
    all be a superstar hey Scott's video guy
  • 00:02:23
    remember that show was called cats eye
  • 00:02:25
    where there was a lot of um uh teenage
  • 00:02:27
    girls competing to be in a girl band oh
  • 00:02:29
    yeah yeah and they're also nice but not
  • 00:02:31
    everyone can kind of make the cut into
  • 00:02:32
    the band of five at the end yeah would
  • 00:02:34
    they start like 36 or something they
  • 00:02:36
    started with a lot of people and there
  • 00:02:37
    was a lot of Tears bro there was they
  • 00:02:39
    were very emotional yeah so if this
  • 00:02:40
    girls we replaced with uh supplements
  • 00:02:43
    there'd be a lot of a lot of amino acid
  • 00:02:45
    powder tears my favorite was the old
  • 00:02:47
    Korean man who was mean to them and told
  • 00:02:49
    them they were bad you're going to be
  • 00:02:51
    that guy ruthless and I can I just uh
  • 00:02:54
    say it in Russian and I get the
  • 00:02:55
    translation so it's it's not only
  • 00:02:56
    insulting but it's also grotesquely
  • 00:02:58
    impersonal like oh what the Mr Korean
  • 00:03:00
    man said was that you're just not pretty
  • 00:03:02
    enough straight up sorry your voice also
  • 00:03:05
    sucks I love that guy what is the other
  • 00:03:07
    quality dancing yeah yeah yeah Scott how
  • 00:03:10
    do we think I I do in a a women's 18 to
  • 00:03:13
    22 year old I'm you know I can
  • 00:03:18
    sing dance why not n I'm done all right
  • 00:03:24
    rank one and this is not a ranking you
  • 00:03:26
    want to make amino acid powders the
  • 00:03:29
    these are powders sometimes
  • 00:03:31
    drinks usually made from a protein
  • 00:03:34
    Source like whey protein but broken down
  • 00:03:37
    into individual amino acids for you
  • 00:03:39
    because whey protein is a bunch of amino
  • 00:03:41
    acids in a string really in kind of a
  • 00:03:43
    curled up string but the string uncurls
  • 00:03:45
    in your stomach gets chopped up so on
  • 00:03:46
    and so forth so the individual amino
  • 00:03:48
    acids that make up a protein it sounds
  • 00:03:51
    dope because they broke up the amino
  • 00:03:53
    acids for you and it's like they did you
  • 00:03:55
    a real solid you don't have to break
  • 00:03:57
    them down yourself but it turns out that
  • 00:03:59
    your body actually has receptors in your
  • 00:04:02
    intestinal lining for multiple amino
  • 00:04:05
    acids and groups of amino acids to
  • 00:04:07
    translocate at the same time which means
  • 00:04:11
    that in reality you can absorb actual
  • 00:04:14
    undigested weight protein that you eat
  • 00:04:17
    and digest yourself better and more
  • 00:04:20
    completely and faster than you can
  • 00:04:22
    absorb individual predigested amino
  • 00:04:24
    acids this something we've known for a
  • 00:04:26
    really long time by the way which is
  • 00:04:28
    curious because people still say sell
  • 00:04:29
    individual amino acids because people
  • 00:04:31
    still buy them so if you take an
  • 00:04:34
    individual amino acid shake like you
  • 00:04:36
    know aminos or whatever versus just whey
  • 00:04:38
    protein then you're actually paying
  • 00:04:41
    extra for a less effective product and
  • 00:04:44
    at best a similarly effective product
  • 00:04:46
    but you're paying more money um Amino
  • 00:04:48
    products are nearly categorically more
  • 00:04:50
    expensive than whey because if you think
  • 00:04:53
    about it just packaging wayy and sending
  • 00:04:54
    it off is dope but if they have to break
  • 00:04:56
    the wayy down into the aminos they going
  • 00:04:58
    to be charging you for that stuff
  • 00:05:00
    because it costs them money to do it the
  • 00:05:01
    factory and it gets to be labeled as
  • 00:05:03
    more exotic Etc more quote unquote high
  • 00:05:05
    quality so you get charged more money
  • 00:05:08
    not ideal the best thing to do in this
  • 00:05:10
    case folks and this is kind of one of
  • 00:05:11
    these things that's like really but it's
  • 00:05:13
    kind of cool in the end my
  • 00:05:15
    recommendation is to stick with whey
  • 00:05:17
    proteins if you're going to be having
  • 00:05:19
    those and forget the individual amino
  • 00:05:21
    acid stuff whey concentrate is totally
  • 00:05:23
    cool isolate's totally cool hydraulis
  • 00:05:26
    totally cool blg is totally cool and all
  • 00:05:29
    of those are totally fine just pick one
  • 00:05:31
    which you like the taste you like the
  • 00:05:33
    price and it sits well with you
  • 00:05:34
    digestively if that's the deal you just
  • 00:05:36
    don't need individual amino acids broken
  • 00:05:38
    down for you so you can skip the aminos
  • 00:05:41
    save your money and potentially not
  • 00:05:43
    spend your money on this next thing
  • 00:05:45
    which is our number two overrated
  • 00:05:47
    supplement and this might hurt some
  • 00:05:49
    feelings
  • 00:05:49
    [Laughter]
  • 00:05:51
    here beta alanine I know I know stay
  • 00:05:54
    calm I can explain beta alanine is an
  • 00:05:58
    awesome supplement for Middle distance
  • 00:05:59
    performance athletes like 400 to 1600
  • 00:06:02
    meter Runners because it helps a little
  • 00:06:05
    bit with locally buffering the acids
  • 00:06:07
    that sum up when you're trying really
  • 00:06:09
    really hard it can thus improve your
  • 00:06:12
    anerobic endurance to put this in
  • 00:06:14
    layman's terms if you run as fast as you
  • 00:06:17
    can for 400600 meters with no pacing
  • 00:06:20
    whatsoever at some point you're going to
  • 00:06:22
    cramp unbelievably hard because the
  • 00:06:24
    amino the sorry Amino the acid
  • 00:06:26
    concentration in your muscles Rises so
  • 00:06:28
    high that it just leavs your muscles to
  • 00:06:30
    to cramp up and just do nothing else
  • 00:06:32
    that cramping is preceded by an insane
  • 00:06:35
    burning sensation which all of us have
  • 00:06:37
    known from high rep lifting and if
  • 00:06:38
    you've ever done middle distance running
  • 00:06:40
    uh or longer Sprints you know how that
  • 00:06:42
    feels what beta alanine does is if you
  • 00:06:45
    take it for a long while and I mean
  • 00:06:47
    weeks and months in a row because it
  • 00:06:49
    slowly adds up on your cells it's not
  • 00:06:51
    something you get an effect of right
  • 00:06:52
    then and there what you can do is push
  • 00:06:54
    back when that burn hits and push back
  • 00:06:57
    when you cramp and fall over by several
  • 00:07:00
    seconds now several seconds I don't know
  • 00:07:02
    how that matters at all in lifting
  • 00:07:04
    probably doesn't which is probably why
  • 00:07:06
    I'm saying you don't have to use it in
  • 00:07:07
    lifting but in competitive middle
  • 00:07:09
    distance running several seconds of
  • 00:07:11
    being able to push the pace before
  • 00:07:13
    having to be like oh crap like this
  • 00:07:15
    isn't sustainable means you can
  • 00:07:17
    literally cut several seconds off of
  • 00:07:19
    your best times which if you're a highly
  • 00:07:21
    competitive athlete man that makes a ton
  • 00:07:24
    of sense if you're a soccer player at a
  • 00:07:26
    decently high level being on beta
  • 00:07:28
    alanine for the season means that you
  • 00:07:30
    have just a bit more juice at the end of
  • 00:07:31
    all of your WR long Sprints you're not
  • 00:07:33
    quite as tired towards the end of the
  • 00:07:34
    game that's a big deal for performance
  • 00:07:36
    athletes so that's awesome but remember
  • 00:07:40
    those are longer term cumulative effects
  • 00:07:41
    that only result after weeks and weeks
  • 00:07:44
    of taking the supplements there are
  • 00:07:45
    studies that show elevation of levels 12
  • 00:07:47
    weeks and longer of taking the
  • 00:07:49
    supplement so it's not something that
  • 00:07:52
    you're going to take and then
  • 00:07:53
    immediately get the results of matter of
  • 00:07:55
    fact you take it you immediately get
  • 00:07:56
    almost nothing except you get that skin
  • 00:07:58
    tingling sensation which people like in
  • 00:08:00
    their pre-workouts sorry to be the
  • 00:08:02
    bearer of bad news that skin tingling
  • 00:08:04
    doesn't really mean anything it means
  • 00:08:05
    your skin is tingling and you can feel
  • 00:08:07
    like your pre-workouts working but by
  • 00:08:09
    working we mean just tingling your skin
  • 00:08:11
    and doing nothing else unless you take
  • 00:08:12
    it for weeks and weeks and weeks and
  • 00:08:14
    weeks and the levels add up so from the
  • 00:08:16
    direct research literature and they've
  • 00:08:18
    done plenty of studies in this it's just
  • 00:08:20
    not clear if beta alanine helps you gain
  • 00:08:22
    muscle some of the study say it might
  • 00:08:24
    help you again a little a lot of the
  • 00:08:25
    study say it doesn't do really anything
  • 00:08:27
    if I had to give you a real good case
  • 00:08:29
    for using your money it would not be
  • 00:08:31
    beta Allen right imagine if someone uh
  • 00:08:33
    you go to a car dealership and you're
  • 00:08:34
    like hey like um is that car like uh
  • 00:08:38
    dependably safe like has it been tested
  • 00:08:40
    and the guy goes it could be safe but
  • 00:08:43
    we're not sure what the hell would you
  • 00:08:44
    buy that thing for same with beta
  • 00:08:46
    alanine it's totally safe but it could
  • 00:08:48
    help you with muscle gain but the
  • 00:08:50
    literature is just insanely unconvincing
  • 00:08:52
    so the direct data leaves a lot to be
  • 00:08:54
    desired
  • 00:08:56
    and logically you know we have some
  • 00:08:59
    reason to believe through animal models
  • 00:09:02
    uh through some human uh situations not
  • 00:09:04
    a ton of data but some decent H hypo
  • 00:09:06
    hypothetical uh kind of uh logic there
  • 00:09:10
    to believe that the summation of
  • 00:09:12
    metabolics the burn itself might grow a
  • 00:09:14
    little bit of muscle for you might
  • 00:09:16
    stimulate some muscle growth so beta
  • 00:09:18
    alanine actually like um reduces that
  • 00:09:20
    and so there's kind of a little bit of
  • 00:09:21
    counter logic there like why would you
  • 00:09:23
    take something that buffers out your
  • 00:09:24
    metabolites if the metabolites are the
  • 00:09:26
    things you want to grow anyway not a
  • 00:09:29
    really solid reason to dunk metabolites
  • 00:09:32
    uh or sorry to to not do beta alanine by
  • 00:09:35
    itself but if the reasoning for doing
  • 00:09:38
    beta alanine was really strong and the
  • 00:09:40
    data just wasn't that great you could be
  • 00:09:41
    like well okay I'm comfortable with
  • 00:09:42
    reasoning itself I'll take a risk or
  • 00:09:43
    I'll take a chance but if even the
  • 00:09:45
    reasoning doesn't make sense and maybe
  • 00:09:47
    slightly backwards if you think about it
  • 00:09:48
    there's other ways to think about it
  • 00:09:49
    that rationalizes it but it's just not a
  • 00:09:51
    good start so what I would say is this
  • 00:09:53
    just buy creatine instead uh because
  • 00:09:56
    while beta alanine might have some
  • 00:09:57
    upsides the upsides for getting you
  • 00:09:59
    jacked which is more muscular and leaner
  • 00:10:01
    Etc just might not exist and things cost
  • 00:10:04
    money so it would say this is not a
  • 00:10:06
    supplement you want to go to all the
  • 00:10:07
    time and a lot of people buy it and
  • 00:10:09
    probably shouldn't be all right number
  • 00:10:11
    three branched chain amino acids AKA
  • 00:10:15
    bcas veine Lucine and isol leucine there
  • 00:10:19
    are three of them they have been studied
  • 00:10:22
    into the ground extensively dozens and
  • 00:10:25
    dozens and dozens of research studies on
  • 00:10:26
    these which is cool so we know a lot
  • 00:10:28
    about them and they are very
  • 00:10:31
    anti-catabolic they profoundly reduce
  • 00:10:35
    the experienced muscle loss you have in
  • 00:10:37
    the several hours after you drink them
  • 00:10:40
    which is really
  • 00:10:41
    awesome right well there are two
  • 00:10:44
    problems with
  • 00:10:45
    this one is that they are very
  • 00:10:47
    anti-catabolic they prevent muscle loss
  • 00:10:50
    but they are not remotely pro-anabolic
  • 00:10:52
    they don't actually Supply the amino
  • 00:10:54
    acids you need to grow muscle and so
  • 00:10:57
    they don't really help you gain muscle
  • 00:10:59
    they can help you reduce muscle loss and
  • 00:11:01
    you're saying like wait a minute that's
  • 00:11:02
    one of your two detraction points how's
  • 00:11:05
    that a detraction they still help you
  • 00:11:06
    prevent muscle loss isn't that good it
  • 00:11:09
    is but check this out if you consume
  • 00:11:11
    whey egg casan and many other complete
  • 00:11:15
    proteins which are composed of BCAAs and
  • 00:11:18
    all of the other amino
  • 00:11:21
    acids these protein sources not only
  • 00:11:24
    reduce muscle loss just as well as only
  • 00:11:27
    bcas taken by themselves but they also
  • 00:11:30
    help grow muscle in addition to that in
  • 00:11:33
    a sense buying BCAAs is like buying a
  • 00:11:36
    car without a roof or a trunk yeah it
  • 00:11:38
    does some car stuff you can go places
  • 00:11:41
    with it it has an indicator light it has
  • 00:11:43
    an engine it has wheels has a steering
  • 00:11:45
    wheel but everything that car does it
  • 00:11:49
    does at least as well as or worse than a
  • 00:11:52
    normal car and nothing better so if you
  • 00:11:56
    are to get in we protein
  • 00:11:59
    that is you already have a normal car
  • 00:12:01
    you already get enough bcas and better
  • 00:12:04
    effects still so if you're consuming
  • 00:12:06
    whey protein and many other complete
  • 00:12:08
    protein sources you already checking the
  • 00:12:09
    box of bcas and all the boxes of the
  • 00:12:11
    other amino acids that help you grow
  • 00:12:13
    muscle and do all the other wonderful
  • 00:12:14
    things proteins do so it's like if you
  • 00:12:17
    already have a car at home that has a
  • 00:12:19
    trunk and has a roof over it and
  • 00:12:21
    someone's like hey I want to sell you a
  • 00:12:22
    car that has not two of these things but
  • 00:12:24
    everything else you're like why hell
  • 00:12:25
    would I do that which is exactly why
  • 00:12:27
    bcas don't make a ton of sense to buy
  • 00:12:30
    right now some people say good news bcas
  • 00:12:33
    are pretty cheap but the reality is that
  • 00:12:35
    a lot of BCA products kind of cost a lot
  • 00:12:38
    of money and any money spent on BCAAs
  • 00:12:41
    where you could have just stuck to your
  • 00:12:42
    wayy protein supplement that you take
  • 00:12:45
    anyway it's just kind of money burned
  • 00:12:47
    out to the wind now I know some people
  • 00:12:49
    get cheap bcas your boy when I used to
  • 00:12:51
    take bcas I never do the cheap thing let
  • 00:12:54
    me tell you my formula for how I get in
  • 00:12:56
    my
  • 00:12:57
    BC first of all only goats milk everyone
  • 00:13:00
    knows that goats milk's better than
  • 00:13:01
    cow's milk and by knows I mean feels and
  • 00:13:03
    by feels I mean has consumed way too
  • 00:13:05
    much naturalistic BS but goats weigh
  • 00:13:09
    only and for my personal goats only I
  • 00:13:12
    don't trust anyone else except for me
  • 00:13:13
    and my
  • 00:13:14
    goats and these are genetically modified
  • 00:13:17
    goats that have uh a fur that's made
  • 00:13:22
    entirely of Platinum Platinum first
  • 00:13:24
    strands because your boy doesn't f with
  • 00:13:25
    that gold or Diamond bullshit that's for
  • 00:13:27
    poor people to deal with and these goats
  • 00:13:30
    of mine which I know personally by name
  • 00:13:33
    are open pasture farmed
  • 00:13:36
    sustainably inside of one of my oil
  • 00:13:39
    powerered Zeppelins at 30,000 fet in the
  • 00:13:41
    air at all times you probably can't
  • 00:13:43
    afford that sort of thing darling so
  • 00:13:46
    you're stuck there consuming cheap bcas
  • 00:13:49
    and even if they're cheap zero money
  • 00:13:51
    spent is better because whey already has
  • 00:13:54
    them in the shit folks don't fall for
  • 00:13:58
    the hype
  • 00:14:00
    bcas have been overhyped for literally
  • 00:14:02
    20 years now and supplement companies
  • 00:14:05
    love it no offense to supplement
  • 00:14:07
    companies they're doing a great job in
  • 00:14:08
    most cases but a lot of people that sell
  • 00:14:10
    BCA supplements if you talk to the CEOs
  • 00:14:12
    they're like look people buy them you
  • 00:14:13
    know and they're not bad they do have
  • 00:14:15
    anti-catabolic properties and you talk
  • 00:14:16
    to them more and you're like do you know
  • 00:14:17
    whey does all the same stuff they're
  • 00:14:18
    like yeah we also sell a whey product
  • 00:14:20
    it's tough for supplement companies to
  • 00:14:22
    stop selling you BS if you just keep
  • 00:14:23
    demanding and buying BS so stop buying
  • 00:14:26
    bcas supplement companies will stop
  • 00:14:27
    selling them you'll just buy way protein
  • 00:14:29
    from them you can afford awesome
  • 00:14:30
    highquality weight it's going to be
  • 00:14:32
    better for
  • 00:14:33
    everyone don't follow trends that have
  • 00:14:35
    already been debunked 20 years ago don't
  • 00:14:36
    become a statistic like oh where's Frank
  • 00:14:39
    oh you didn't hear bcaa's got him he's
  • 00:14:42
    not with us anymore oh Jesus not Frank

    the description of this video to get
  • 00:15:57
    started last one number four is
  • 00:16:01
    glutamine glutamine was taken by
  • 00:16:04
    bodybuilders for like 30 years and then
  • 00:16:07
    in the 1990s exercise scientists started
  • 00:16:10
    really intently researching its effects
  • 00:16:12
    to try to find out like well hold on
  • 00:16:14
    does it do stuff CU everybody swore by
  • 00:16:16
    glutamine for Generations we found
  • 00:16:19
    convincingly that individuals with
  • 00:16:21
    certain types of pretty extreme bow
  • 00:16:23
    disease intestinal disease glutamine can
  • 00:16:25
    help in at least four ways first it
  • 00:16:28
    fuels your intestinal cells it's a
  • 00:16:31
    primary fuel source for cells called
  • 00:16:33
    inyes which are the cell Linings of the
  • 00:16:35
    intestinal walls it helps maintain the
  • 00:16:38
    Integrity of the intestinal barrier that
  • 00:16:40
    does awesome really really good stuff
  • 00:16:42
    for you if you have intense intestinal
  • 00:16:45
    disease number two is they have
  • 00:16:48
    anti-inflammatory effects to the gut
  • 00:16:50
    itself to the intestinal wall which is
  • 00:16:52
    really awesome if you have conditions
  • 00:16:54
    like Crohn's disease you can benefit
  • 00:16:56
    greatly in many cases from glutamine
  • 00:16:59
    supplementation if you do not have
  • 00:17:00
    Crohn's disease glutamine does nothing
  • 00:17:03
    at all because you get tons of glutamine
  • 00:17:05
    from almost every other food that you
  • 00:17:06
    eat and it is not a limiting factor if
  • 00:17:08
    you have not diagnosed intestinal lining
  • 00:17:12
    disease glutamine also helps support the
  • 00:17:14
    mucosal barrier which does all kinds of
  • 00:17:16
    really good stuff helps protect the
  • 00:17:18
    intestines and glutamine even helps
  • 00:17:20
    maintain the tight junctions between
  • 00:17:21
    your intestinal cells so if you have
  • 00:17:24
    leaky gut glutamine can actually reduce
  • 00:17:27
    that impact of that disease if you do
  • 00:17:29
    not have leaky gut glutamine again does
  • 00:17:32
    functionally nothing
  • 00:17:33
    whatsoever in study after study we have
  • 00:17:37
    found as a scientific community that if
  • 00:17:39
    you don't have digestive problems
  • 00:17:41
    glutamine doesn't help you with your gut
  • 00:17:43
    and on top of the gut stuff which is all
  • 00:17:46
    good and well if you have those problems
  • 00:17:48
    glutamine does not grow muscle glutamine
  • 00:17:51
    is just one amino acid and is usually
  • 00:17:54
    usually I said that I'll say it even
  • 00:17:57
    stronger it is almost never the limiting
  • 00:17:59
    factor amino acid in protein
  • 00:18:00
    construction for your body it's kind of
  • 00:18:03
    like you have uh you're building a house
  • 00:18:05
    and you have piles of metal piles of
  • 00:18:07
    electrical wire piles of bricks uh
  • 00:18:09
    little sheets of glass and little window
  • 00:18:12
    frames and then a giant pile of sand
  • 00:18:14
    once you put the sand in the bottom for
  • 00:18:16
    the foundation or whatever you still
  • 00:18:17
    have a huge pile left and someone's like
  • 00:18:19
    how's the house construction going good
  • 00:18:20
    I've got everything I need they like do
  • 00:18:22
    you want a lot more sand you to look at
  • 00:18:24
    this giant sand pile like I actually
  • 00:18:25
    think we don't even need that they're
  • 00:18:27
    like I'll get let me get you a couple
  • 00:18:28
    truck loads of more sand I don't want no
  • 00:18:30
    no no no more sand but you could put
  • 00:18:32
    sand in all kinds of stuff like we could
  • 00:18:34
    have a sand pile in the kitchen you're
  • 00:18:35
    like you're out of your mind that's what
  • 00:18:36
    glutamine is to your to the human body
  • 00:18:38
    in almost all cases if you don't have
  • 00:18:41
    some kind of diagnosed intestinal
  • 00:18:43
    condition you just don't need any more
  • 00:18:45
    glut gluten good God glutamine you could
  • 00:18:47
    use more gluten though because it's
  • 00:18:49
    delicious Scott I was with some folks
  • 00:18:51
    having dinner and one of them had Celiac
  • 00:18:54
    and uh we had like a like a cake dessert
  • 00:18:56
    that they brought us out and a couple of
  • 00:18:58
    us tried it and she she couldn't have it
  • 00:19:00
    cuz she had seac and she was like how
  • 00:19:02
    was it and I was you know me man I was
  • 00:19:04
    going to lie and be like it's not that
  • 00:19:05
    good but one of the guys was like it's
  • 00:19:06
    [Music]
  • 00:19:08
    unbelievable don't tell her that yeah
  • 00:19:11
    gluten is dope though the level of uh
  • 00:19:14
    puffiness that gluten can make is just
  • 00:19:17
    gluten-free it just doesn't doesn't add
  • 00:19:19
    up so glutamine doesn't grow muscle and
  • 00:19:22
    if you don't have digestive problems it
  • 00:19:23
    doesn't help you with those either now
  • 00:19:27
    there are no doubt nicer ways to what
  • 00:19:29
    I'm going to say but glutamine for
  • 00:19:30
    lifters is like damn near just burning
  • 00:19:32
    your money um at least physically
  • 00:19:35
    burning literal cash in public he like a
  • 00:19:38
    rich guy Flex that might keep you laate
  • 00:19:39
    on the other end buying glutamine and
  • 00:19:41
    eating it is not a flex it's just kind
  • 00:19:43
    of dumb um you do get a membership into
  • 00:19:46
    a club if you consume glutamine
  • 00:19:48
    regularly and pay your money for it it's
  • 00:19:50
    the mark ass bitch Club trust me the
  • 00:19:52
    benefits are not
  • 00:19:54
    great you might have a problem with this
  • 00:19:56
    whole list at this point you could say
  • 00:19:58
    something like but Mike and I'm like
  • 00:20:00
    it's Dr Mike okay I didn't go to PhD
  • 00:20:02
    school for Nothing by the way I'm not
  • 00:20:04
    one of those people if you ever see me
  • 00:20:05
    in the street you can call me Mike
  • 00:20:06
    fucking God you can call me whatever you
  • 00:20:07
    want if I turn around I'm yours but Mike
  • 00:20:11
    I have more money now because I'm not
  • 00:20:12
    spending in a BS UPS anymore where can I
  • 00:20:15
    spend my money instead I have a few
  • 00:20:17
    helpful
  • 00:20:18
    suggestions first you can send it to my
  • 00:20:20
    cash app as a donation I'll even send
  • 00:20:23
    you a nude pick back how about that uh
  • 00:20:25
    the address is Mike's cash app desper
  • 00:20:28
    ation uh Mike's cash app desperation hit
  • 00:20:31
    me up your boy needs money Scott
  • 00:20:33
    wouldn't it be funny if people actually
  • 00:20:34
    sent money and requested nude picks and
  • 00:20:35
    someone actually had that account or
  • 00:20:37
    started it because this video listen
  • 00:20:39
    start the account you could be into some
  • 00:20:40
    cash as long as you send new pictures
  • 00:20:42
    back yeah AI can draw those for you now
  • 00:20:45
    remember my genitals are preposterously
  • 00:20:48
    large and always erect so draw me
  • 00:20:50
    accurately number two you can buy a cat
  • 00:20:53
    it won't love you like a dog will it
  • 00:20:54
    doesn't really know you're human it
  • 00:20:56
    doesn't care about you and it'll
  • 00:20:57
    probably eat your body if you die but uh
  • 00:20:59
    at least you can pretend to have another
  • 00:21:00
    living thing finally caring for you for
  • 00:21:02
    once me personally I have nothing and no
  • 00:21:04
    one so I would like a cat if you could
  • 00:21:06
    send me a cat to my cash app I would be
  • 00:21:08
    greatly appreciative another thing you
  • 00:21:10
    can do with your money that's fun is get
  • 00:21:12
    a Super Soaker squirt gun and put water
  • 00:21:15
    and permanent red dye the kind of stuff
  • 00:21:17
    that sticks to people's clothes a ton
  • 00:21:19
    into it and go into the subway and shoot
  • 00:21:21
    people that are G on their way to work
  • 00:21:23
    it's fun uh fun during the work day
