<<After reading up on L-Glutamine.. It seems as if its almost needed if you lift and do atkins because it will prevent muscle breakdown?>>

Could someone please tell me what this means? I lift weights -- kind of in the middle -- not light and not heavy and keep my carbs below 30 grams a day. I've been on Atkins for 6 months now...and lifting for 2 months. Am I breaking down my muscle?

Thanks for your help.
