Well if the whey has added glutamine then there is only so much of one amino you can expect to absorb effeciently at one time that is true and there also may be competition with other aminos that compete for absorption from the same transporters. But I don't think that the typical amounts here would overwhelm you AND most of the glutamine gets utilized by the GI tract anyway (which is a good thing) and it really takes a lot to raise blood levels. That is if you think there is a benefit to extra glutamine which I still am not sure of other than it's benefits to the GI tract and the immune system which ain't gonna hurt, that's for sure.

Most whey products, if they don't have added glutamine will not have a lot of natural glutamine but mostly glutamic acid.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
