Glycine

Description

Glycine is the body’s most abundant amino acid and a cornerstone of multiple metabolic pathways that influence restorative sleep, connective-tissue integrity, and detoxification. Each capsule provides 850 mg of pure USP-grade glycine, matching doses used in human studies to improve sleep latency and enhance subjective sleep quality without next-day drowsiness.

Beyond its neurologic calm-promoting effects, glycine is a critical precursor for glutathione, the master antioxidant required for phase-II liver conjugation of hormones, xenobiotics, and heavy metals. Adequate glycine intake also supports healthy blood-sugar balance by modulating gluconeogenesis and improves joint and skin resilience through its role in collagen cross-linking.**
