Supports immune, neurological function, & anti-aging.*
The amnio acid glycine is integral to the production of glutathione, DNA, creatine, bile, hemoglobin, and most proteins. It also helps to promote glycogen storage, thereby making glucose readily available for energy production. It also functions as a calming neurotransmitter in the brain, where it facilitates nerve impulses and is important for the maintenance of healthy sleep patterns.
Glycine helps the body make glutathione, an important antioxidant that protects the body against cell damage. It is also a component of creatine, a compound that provides your muscles with energy. It has been associated with other health benefits, such as improved bone health, brain function, and neurological function.
Glycine is known to be helpful in addressing glyphosate toxicity in the body, which is essential in maintaining gut wall integrity, supporting glutathione production and function, and promoting neurological function. Glyphosate is a driving force of gluten intolerance and dysbiosis through multiple mechanisms, including weakening the tight junctions in the gut lining, leading to intestinal permeability. Glycine may help restore the gut lining.
Collagen is a structural protein that contains high amounts of glycine. In fact, every third to fourth amino acid in collagen is glycine. Glycine is the amino acid with the highest concentration in connective tissue. Its benefits go far beyond connective tissue health, as glycine has anti-inflammatory effects, acts as a neurotransmitter, and plays an important role in the epigenetic regulation that drives the aging process.
Glycine helps protect against viruses by reinforcing the extracellular matrix, which acts as a physical barrier to infectious agents such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
