About

Glycine plays many roles in the body including acting as a neurotransmitter in the brain, where it supports healthy nerve impulses. It is also important for supporting healthy sleep patterns.

Oxidative Stress 

Glycine is one of the amino acids essential to the body’s synthesis of the antioxidant glutathione.

The glutathione system processes toxic substances produced in our diet such as alcohol, air pollution and other toxic chemicals that we ingest.

Cells produce glutathione in order to fight free radicals that can cause oxidative stress and damage cells, proteins, and DNA.

As the body ages, its ability to naturally synthesize glutathione reduces, but this can be supported through supplementation with glycine.

I use as a sugar substitute

I had heard that glycine had a slight sweetness to it and is good for your gut so bought it to help me reduce my sugar intake in my multiple cups of tea a day. Glycine is known to help build collagen so that has to be a good thing. I am very happy with it and will start to increase my dosage now after a months use as have been quite light with it to date. Might even mix a little and try directly on skin
