Yes: L-glutamine is essential for maintaining muscle mass and increased muscle mass is essential for increasing metabolic rate. Having said that let us be clear, there are many ways to lose weight and the hardest part is to maintain the loss long term. Life style, diet and mind set all help with long term goals.
