I've done little to no running in the last 3 weeks partly due to travel but mostly due to the Glutamine Intolerance. I didn't just have the usual fatigue and abnormal sore muscles. My knees were killing me. It got so bad that I couldn't run at all but never really thought that I was injured.
It took several days to find the culprit but it was most definitely Glutamine. Not very long ago, I could not function without it and endured a horrible day because I did NOT take it. Needless to say, I am pissed off!
Also, I began having problems with tanning gummies, which like Glutamine can be beneficial for gut health. I thought perhaps I overshot the balance and might still need it at low doses. I took one pill at night in Savannah after laying off both the Glutamine and tanning gummies for a few days. I didn't get an immediate negative response but I felt it the next morning. I got home and tried 2 tanning gummies. Immediate bad reaction. Also, Thym Adren makes things worse when Glutamine is in my system but I need it again when it clears.
Source of the problem:
Most probably the CBS mutation. A bad reaction to NAC confirmed this. Anything that contains Sulfur is bad. I am unclear if the tanning gummies have anything to do with the CBS mutation but I'm not taking anything that causes a reaction.
Plan of Attack:
All I can do for now is to lay off the Glutamine. Maybe the intolerance will fade in time. Perhaps Yucca or other specific CBS treatments will allow tolerance again.
