Positive effects on neuropathy
173 people found this helpful
This product is effective for my mother's chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. I got it for her as she's currently undergoing chemo and radiation, where L-glutamine is recommended to help with neuropathy. This is her second round of chemo and the neuropathy was significant the first time. Some feeling hasn't returned in her feet, but it seems to be helping reverse it, as her hands are improving during treatment. Additionally, she's experiencing less discomfort in her esophagus, allowing her to eat without numbing medicine. It's great for cancer patients undergoing chemo!

Decreased neuropathy symptoms

I highly recommend this glutamine for those undergoing chemotherapy. As a breast cancer patient who recently completed chemo, I experienced mild neuropathy after my first Taxol infusion. I tried this after reading studies and getting advice from others (and my doctor). The neuropathy reappeared briefly when I forgot my powder during a weekend trip, but after resuming my dosage of 10 mg each morning, it subsided after a couple of days. Now, four weeks post-final chemo, I have no neuropathy! I used this for immune support and as part of my exercise routine.

Top quality product. It helps with radiation-induced esophagitis. I started giving this to my husband when he began radiation for lung cancer. Radiation can cause severe esophagitis, and my research indicated that L-glutamine could reduce the severity. He was symptom free for 5 of the 6 weeks, only experiencing a sore throat after week 5. His radiologist was amazed as most patients show symptoms by week two! I give him 2 teaspoons three times a day. UPDATE: He completed radiation a month ago but stopped taking the L-glutamine a few days ago without telling me. The esophagitis symptoms started returning, and although he was mostly regular, he's now complaining of constipation, so I'm convinced it was helping with that as well.

Minimal side effects
1 people found this helpful
This product greatly reduces chemotherapy side effects. I purchased it for my dad, who is on oxaliplatin for colon cancer. Studies suggested that L-glutamine could alleviate chemo-induced neuropathy. After 8 rounds of chemo, my dad's side effects have been very minimal. He can handle cold items and drinks without a strong reaction. This has been a lifesaver! I would highly recommend it for anyone undergoing chemo like oxaliplatin.

Diminished neuropathy effects
7 people found this helpful
L-Glutamine may help lessen chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. In March 2013, my wife ran out of another brand and developed a severe case of shingles after a preventive vaccination. She started using this brand on a naturopath's advice during a cancer workshop for restoring feeling in her extremities. The neuropathy has gradually diminished since starting L-glutamine. However, we've also employed other remedies, so we cannot definitively attribute the results solely to this product.
