NOW Foods – Glycine
Pharmaceutical Grade, Free-Form
Promotes Restful Sleep
Nervous System Support
Glycine is the smallest and simplest amino acid, making it versatile for use in a wide range of functions. Glycine is necessary for 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. Glycine also functions as a calming neurotransmitter in the brain, where it facilitates nerve impulses and is important for the maintenance of healthy sleep patterns.

Good price and quantity of capsules. Be sure to test it yourself. For some people it helps them sleep for others it doesn’t. Some take it in the morning and others before bedtime. In my opinion, you should combine it with NAC in the morning on an empty stomach, as it can affect your sleep quality. Glycine and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Taken together, they act as precursors to glutathione, the body’s main antioxidant.

It’s a great addition to my diet, I took it just to try what it is because I’ve heard a lot about this amino acid and its benefits for the body. I took the supplement for a week except for the glycine I didn’t take anything else. To tell you the truth, I was pleasantly surprised, 5 minutes after taking it I felt a slight sedative effect, an improvement in attention and concentration, the pressure decreased, both systolic and diastolic. I also noticed that taking it I slept less and slept better and a nice bonus was the best pumping during workouts I felt better muscle fullness it’s easy to explain the effect of glycine because our body creates creatine, which has a positive effect on muscle strength, pumping and fullness. The capsules are large and easy to swallow, and the glycine is sweet and flavorful. I mainly use it for workouts, which are more intense and productive. I recommand it.

Glycine, coupled with NAC will help in the production of glutathione: a powerful antioxidant. Glycine is also an amino acid necessary for the production of proteins. Personally, glycine helps promote sleep, which is evident 1 hour after taking is a great benefit for those who have trouble sleeping. The capsule has a neutral taste but has a slight sweet taste if it were to be opened. The size, the number of capsules and the packaging are perfect, hence a good price-performance ratio. Will surely buy again!

used “loose” wisteria powder and I like how it worked. Then ordered this glycine in capsules. It is very convenient to take 2-3 capsules about half an hour to 1 hour before going to bed. They work great to help relax – comparable to how powder works. Highly recommend.

This one is my favourite! I take it every night. Suffering from insomnia, having too much stress, I probably couldn’t function in the morning. But my brain is clear, I’m very productive and full of energy. It helps me face certain unpredictable situations with more stability and calm.

I am a T1D and I have been on this Glycine supplement for a few years. Glycine helps to support my health and this is a decent supplement sold by Ecosupplements at a good price.

After a week of using 100mg I felt more energized and had more energy throughout the day. My mood improved and my concentration increased. I had less pain in the joints for a few days. The effects are not convincing but maybe after 4-6 weeks I will realize the effects.

One of the amino acid species that is actively involved in many biochemical processes occurring in the human body. It plays the greatest role in the regulation of nerve impulses, which makes the psychological state of a person equal. Stimulates the work of the brain, removes from a tense state, normalizes sleep and promotes social adaptations

purchased this product a few weeks ago because I needed the benefits of glycine for neurotransmitters and gastrointestinal support. I have found this product to be a quality single ingredient amino acid that fits well into my current fitness routine. The capsules are medium in size, smooth, white in color and very easy to swallow. The capsules are easy to separate if a person wants to add the powder to a smoothie or other type of drink. There is no taste that I can discern. No bitterness or upset stomach noted. The bottle is easy to grip and the flip cap can be easily opened, even for people with arthritis. The label is colorful, informative, has easy-to-read instructions for dosage, and a black and white box with supplement information. There are 33 servings per container, 100 capsules per bottle. Each serving contains Glycine 3 grams. This is a gluten free product. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to add glycine to their diet for sleep, brain, and gastrointestinal support. The product came well packaged and shipped quickly. I will definitely buy this product again.

I take this for a sleep aid and it does the trick! I take 3 capsules about 30 minutes before bed and get to sleep quickly and sleep well all night. Great product!!

This one seems to be very strong making me overly-sleepy and a bit distracted. It is better not to take it in the morning.

My wife uses glycine along with melatonin for sleep. 3000 mg. at bedtime and 5 mg. of melatonin. Works good for her.

Glycine is my go-to for helping me get a good night’s sleep. I also use magnesium bisglycinate with it. When I wake up, I don’t feel groggy and dull like other sleeping pills do. And all it takes is one 1000mg capsule. Now brand prices are generally better than other brands, and it works just as well.

I bought it to reduce my allergy to phenols. It really works. I used to have terrible headaches when people around me smoked or used detergents. Now my migraines are almost gone. Hope this will help get rid of the allergy. Also I become calmer. I was very nervous before. But, at this stage, it does not help to sleep. In general, I am very satisfied. Thank you so much.
