What is Glycine?

Glycine (L-Glycine) is defined as a non-essential amino acid.  Glycine can help remove toxic substances like lactic acid from the body, and it may also increase the use and availability of growth hormone.

Glycine is used in the body to help construct the genetic material needed for proper cellular function and formation.  It may help prevent the breakdown of muscle by boosting the body’s levels of Creatine, a compound that helps increase energy levels.

High concentrations of Glycine are found not only in the muscles, but in the skin and other connective tissues as well.  Almost 1/3 of collagen, which keeps the skin and connective tissue firm and flexible is composed of Glycine.

Glycine is considered a glucogenic amino acid, which means it helps supply the body with glucose needed for energy, also helping to regulate the blood sugar levels.  It is also essential for a healthy normal functioning digestive system, which helps regulate the synthesis of the bile acid used to digest fats.

 

Use & Benefits:

Glycine is one of three amino acids that your body uses to make glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect your cells against oxidative damage caused by free radicals, which are thought to underlie many diseases.

Glycine is a component of Creatine, a compound that provides your muscles with energy and has been associated with other health benefits, such as improved bone health and brain function.

Glycine is the most abundant amino acid in collagen, a structural protein that has several health benefits, including for your skin, joints and bones.  Therefore, it’s important that you get enough Glycine to support your body’s production of collagen.

Glycine may promote sleep and enhance the quality of your sleep through its calming effects on the brain and its ability to lower core body temperature.

Glycine may reduce muscle wasting, a condition that occurs with aging, malnutrition and when your body is under stress.  Supplementing with Glycine may preserve muscle mass improving health by protecting muscles from wasting during various wasting conditions.
