Glycine is a non-essential amino acid and has the simplest structure of all amino acids, allowing it to fit easily within protein chains and make space for structurally larger amino acids. This feature makes it very important for specific bodily functions. Glycine is also a precursor of creatine, which is used to construct DNA and RNA. And it supports glycogen storage, thereby making more glucose available for energy production.* The amino acid Glycine is non-chiral and only has one form without a D- or L- designation.

This Glycine Works Miracles ~ OCD, Anxiety, Depression, Dermatillomania, Insomnia GONE
NOW Supplements Glycine Pure Powder will give you safe, restful sleep. It also has a major calming effect. It, together with a powerful supplement stack I am taking, as changed the quality of my life.I am now experiencing longer, deeper sleep. Insomnia vastly improved. Anxiety is not just diminished, but gone. I no longer suffer from depression, OCD is vastly improved, focus is enhanced, brain fog cleared. I am experiencing weight loss, lost 2 1/2 inches off my waist, and credit all these effects to the glycine, in addition to the supplement stack I am now on. Pre-diabetes and insulin resistance is gone. BP normal. Healthy glucose/AC1/HDL/LDL levels on my blood test. No dietary/exercise changes, but I look and feel 20 years younger. I have energy! My doctor is amazed. 6 weeks is all it took for me.This Glycine powder is pure, has no undesirable taste, and is super easy to talk. I stir it in my coffee with hazelnut non fat, non dairy creamer, and I find it does not change the taste. I like the fact that it is pure glycine, not mixed with additives I find in capsule form. And as it is powder, you can easily take the exact amount you want, so you control your own dosage.I have had a prolonged, challenging rough patch in my life to deal with. Add to that, I’m a chronic insomniac and because of severe PTSD, I suffer from being in a constant state of hyper alertness, with tensed muscles and catch myself with clenched hands and tense shoulder/neck. Trying to lay down and sleep like that is impossible. Trying to just function normally throughout my day was impossible. Trying to function on two or three hours of sleep is impossible. In addition, all this causes high levels of cortisol and adrenaline; I watched my waist expanding. My cholesterol went sky high, my blood pressure soared, and I was diagnosed pre-diabetic.My GP bugged me for over a year to try an Rx, and when I finally caved out of desperation, the prescription medications made my symptoms worse as well as I experienced a few new ones, including frightening hand tremors. Tossed those medications in the trash the first week. I started doing research, tried a few natural supplement combinations that did not worked, and finally found the combination that does. Glycine is an important and integral part of the natural, clinically proven combo that has changed my life.I usually add this Glycine Powder to my midmorning coffee, then again add a bit to a beverage early evening. I immediately feel the calm and experience true relaxation.

May aid in reversing aging
This is exactly as advertised: pure pharmaceutical grade glycine. It looks like sugar and it is very subtly sweet, but mostly it’s tasteless when added to food or drink. If you put ¼ teaspoon in a glass of water, you might notice that the water tastes ever so subtly sweeter, but it still tastes completely like water. If you didn’t know it was there, you’d probably never notice it. Frankly, it makes the water taste “fresher.”The packaging advises taking ¼ teaspoon one to three times a day. Each ¼ teaspoon contains 1 g (1000 mg) of glycine. There are 454 servings of glycine in every one-pound container. Thus if you were to take three, ¼ teaspoons/day, this bottle would last 151 days. This 3g/day dosage is consistent with what I’ve learned through internet research and it is what I’ve been doing.I started taking glycine because I learned that it might be strongly associated with prolonging life. It is already known to help with sleep, wound healing, and joint pain. Science has only recently come around to recognizing that glycine should be considered a semi-essential amino acid. Humans can manufacture glycine in their livers from other amino acids, but the modern diet often means that humans are slightly glycine deficient. Supplementation with approximately 3 g/day in modern man may be beneficial.I’ve noticed no amazing change in my health since I started taking glycine; however, it is very calming and helps with sleep. I’ve notice that wounds heal quickly and my low-grade knee pain is less notable. But frankly, even if I noticed nothing, I’d still continue to take this product because I’m betting that researchers will continue to discover that it plays a vital role in anti-aging.We’re not allowed to include Internet links in reviews. But if you’d like to educate yourself about some of the articles I’ve read that have convinced me to start supplementing with glycine, Google (with quotes): 1) “health benefits of glycine” and 2) “Scientists reverse aging in human cell lines”.

One of the Best Sleep Supporting Supplements
I rely on this stuff for a good night’s sleep. It’s sweet so I mix it into my nighttime tea. I would have given it 5 stars but there is a tolerance that builds over time. For the first 6 months or so of taking it, I felt like I was sleeping like a teenager again. Now I often have to take a booster in the middle of the night, so I also buy the 1,000mg capsules and keep them by my bedside. It’s also useful as mild support for calming the nerves.

Good quality, decent value. Effective supplement.
I take 3g before bedtime for better sleep. I also take magnesium, then.Take up to 10g per day (with some vitamin C) for improved collagen production.

I’ve just received the product today. I’ll have to use it for a while before I can comment on the products efficacy. But it looks promising. I’ve seen product reviews complaining about product packaging. I’m happy to tell you I’ve received my package safe and sound. They ensured the packaging remained secure by wrapping the container in some sort of a thick soft plastic wrap. Looks like they are correcting their previous mistakes. That wrap did its job. The container has about 3/4 filled with powder. The rest of the container is empty. The container was well sealed. So no foul play there. So that’s just the way it is. More spacey container without compromising on product quantity. I hope the quality is up to the mark. Will make an edit later after usage if Amazon allows it. I hope this has been helpful. Thank you for reading!
