FAQS
A:
There is one study in which patients with liver cirrhosis and awaiting liver transplantation received oral glutamine (10-20 gram single dose) and experienced increased blood ammonia and impaired performance on certain neuropsychiatric tests.(1) This suggests a possible risk of exacerbating portal-systemic encephalopathy, which could be dangerous for cirrhosis patients. Although such a scenario is unlikely except in cases of severe liver disease, the dose used in the referenced study is achievable with Glutamine Forte, so we opted to err on the side of caution to allow the user and their doctor to make a fully informed decision.
