glutamine is better not to be taken with creatine cause of the absorption rates of glutamine become minimal.so it is better to take it separate

absorption rates of glutamine are already poor. Take it with whatever you want however you want.

I heard that it's best to take glutamine on an empty stomache (in between meals) but I just throw it in my protein shakes, and sometimes in between meals.

you should not take at the same time are Creatine + L-Glutamine. You should not take Creatine and Glutamine at the same time, because Creatine and Glutamine depend on many of the same substrate carriers and co-transporters. When the two are competing with one another for the same carriers, one wins and one loses.

Solution: Simply take them with 2 hours apart. Most bodybuilders are taking L-Glutamine before they train and before they sleep, and Creatine after they train and first thing in the morning. So this way, they give their bodies plenty of time to absorb each one of these separately. For others that train after their breakfast, if you take Creatine only once per day, take it after your training, and on the days you don't train, simply take your second dosage 2-3 hours after your morning L-Glutamine serving, or 2-3 hours before your last L-Glutamine serving.
