In adolescents with type 1 diabetes with no residual insulin secretion, oral glutamine supplementation increased the incidence of postexercise, nocturnal hypoglycemia compared with a calorie- and nitrogen-free placebo. Insulin sensitivity, as measured using a two-dose hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp clamp the following morning, did not differ between oral glutamine and placebo. Whether long-term oral glutamine would have a role as an oral supplement to affect glucose control remains to be explored.
