Our Glycine Powder offers the amino acid glycine in a pure powder form for flexible dosing and convenience. Although glycine is synthesized in the human body, supplemental amounts may be beneficial to help meet the body’s many biological and metabolic demands for this amino acid. Glycine powder mixes well in water or any other beverage, and may be beneficial in supporting normal muscle tissue repair after a workout.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF GLYCINE
• Structural Support: Glycine is a primary constituent of collagen, a key structural component of blood vessels, skin, bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and other connective tissue. It supports protein synthesis, tissue repair, and wound healing.
• Detoxification: Glycine is used by the body to make glutathione, the body’s chief antioxidant and a critical component of normal detoxification processes in the liver. Glycine is often lacking in individuals exposed to numerous toxins, which results in an abundance of damaging free radicals.
• Liver Health: Glycine assists the liver in making bile salts, which are necessary compounds for adequately digesting dietary fats and eliminating toxins. Glycine powder can be used post-workout for recovery and glycogen resynthesis, especially for those following a low-carb diet and who prefer to avoid post-workout carbohydrates.
