It is made by fermentation, then micronized, which means it is milled to a very fine particle size so it mixes smoothly instead of sitting at the bottom of the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlutamine is the most plentiful free amino acid in the body and is found in high-protein foods such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy.
