Kyowa Hakko's Sustamine® L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine is featured in True Athlete® in Latest Novel Sports Nutrition Blend

NEW YORK, Dec. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Kyowa Hakko's Sustamine® L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine ingredient for rapid glutamine absorption and hydration support* is now available in The Vitamin Shoppe's exclusive sports nutrition supplement brand, True Athlete®, which recently upgraded its product line with the launch of Glutamine Sport Hydration & Recovery Blend.

Known for creating next-generation performance supplements that are independently tested and NSF Certified for Sport®, The Vitamin Shoppe's True Athlete® brand guarantees high-quality, pure performance products formulated only with premium ingredients to ensure efficacy, safety and product integrity, with no synthetic hormones, artificial colors or flavors used. Kyowa Hakko, leading international health ingredient manufacturer, is thrilled to have its L-Glutamine and L-Alanyl combined ingredient, Sustamine®, featured in the new product.

"It's the perfect match," comments Elyse Lovett, MS, MBA, Senior Marketing Manager of Kyowa Hakko U.S.A. Inc. "The Vitamin Shoppe's commitment to creating clean, safe, and efficacious products seamlessly coincides with Kyowa Hakko's commitment to manufacturing clinically-studied, efficacious and high quality and high purity ingredients through our patented fermentation process. We are excited to see this new formulation hit the market."

The Glutamine Sport Hydration & Recovery Blend is anti-catabolic and designed to support muscle recovery and the immune system. Glutamine is the most abundant single amino acid in the human body and is conditionally essential. However, while the body can endogenously produce glutamine, levels of it can deplete through several factors such as intense exercise. Replenishing glutamine levels through supplementation may support exercise recovery, while supporting the immune system and gastrointestinal health.

Produced through an innovative fermentation method, Kyowa Hakko's branded Sustamine® L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine ingredient is a unique combination of the amino acids L-Glutamine and L-Alanyl. Sustamine® L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine has been clinically researched to offer unique and even superior benefits over either amino acid alone.

The branded ingredient is also clinically researched to be more easily absorbed by the body than complex protein molecules, and works to support hydration over water alone*.

True Athlete® Glutamine Sport Hydration and Recovery Blend is available online at VitaminShoppe.com, on The Vitamin Shoppe app, and in-store nationwide at more than 750 The Vitamin Shoppe locations.
