Yes, the FDA changed the classification of that type of glutamine to "treatment" grade and the price tripled.

production was limited to begin with, so price was already high, partly because of the dominance of glutamine in the market (manufacturers dont want to heavily produce against an established product, unless there is a guaranteed market). The increased restrictions on peptides, caused a significant increase price (about 3 fold on the raw material). If manufacturers decide to increase their volume of production, price may come down again. Though its not likely in the near future. Who knows the japanese may go on an amino kick, if so it could happen.
