Glycine is a simple amino acid that plays critical roles in the body, particularly in the synthesis of proteins, DNA, and other vital biomolecules. It acts as a calming neurotransmitter in the brain, promoting relaxation and sleep quality. Glycine also supports liver detoxification and antioxidant defenses by contributing to the production of glutathione, one of the body's primary antioxidants.

Amino acid that promotes relaxation, detoxification, and normal muscle function*

Glycine is an essential amino acid that supports a healthy central nervous system (CNS), acting as a crucial inhibitory neurotransmitter in areas like the brainstem and spinal cord. Research indicates that glycine can enhance memory retrieval, particularly in individuals facing sleep disturbances from conditions like jet lag or overwork. Beyond the CNS, glycine is vital for phase II liver detoxification, aiding toxin elimination and boosting glutathione levels. It also helps modulate obesity-related cytokines.

Glycine is one of three amino acids needed to synthesise creatine, which provides energy to muscle and nerve cells, with arginine and methionine being the other two. It is concentrated in muscles, skin and connective tissues, comprising about 30% of collagen.

Glycine supports digestive health by regulating bile acid synthesis for fat digestion and plays a role in glucose utilisation during energy production.
