Life Extension Glycine 1000 mg – Promotes Relaxation, Healthy Sleep, Glucose + Fructose Metabolism – Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, Vegetarian – 100 Vegetarian Capsules

Product Description
Glycine is the simplest of all amino acids. It can be made by the body, but since it doesn’t appear to meet the body’s requirements at all times, it’s considered by some to be semi-essential. Most of the glycine in the body becomes incorporated in proteins, but free glycine acts as a neurotransmitter involved in regulating appetite, behavior and general homeostasis. It has fundamental roles in support of healthy gene expression, cellular antioxidant processes, detoxification, immune function, growth, development, metabolism and survival. Like other one-carbon molecules, glycine has been linked to longevity in certain species.

    Best Sleep Aid Ever - Will Buy Again
    "I was skeptical about yet another sleep aid.

    I came across the very few videos about glycine on YouTube and decided to give this a try for sleep.

    Apparently there are other benefits as well for Glycine. Great sleep. Great Recovery. Possibly higher HGH levels. Vivid Dreams.

    For me, this product help me sleep within 10 mins. Most of the time I don’t remember falling asleep at all.

    I sleep so well I don’t even wake up to use the bathroom. It’s almost like time travel.

    Any negative effects? Not for me at least. No grogginess. No urge to go back to sleep. No slump.

    My only concern is building a tolerance. But yet some studies say up to 60G of glycine would be peak performance."
    Recommended by body builders. But I didn’t expect Glycine to help my sleep! No side effects
    "So I had Glycine on a list of supplements to try because I follow some healthy body builder types online. I am not one myself though. At all. I am not even a fit person nor a fitness fanatic at all. I’m older and not svelte currently. (I prefer natural remedies as first line defense when possible.) So I’m not a fitness icon here. But I do follow and read these healthy peoples posts, and they recommended Glycine. (Taurine too even. Plus many others). But I had Glycine on my radar the most.
    So Glycine has been on my list of supplements to try, but I just wasn’t in a rush since I’m not building muscles.

    Now I deal with insomnia lately. And I had read somewhere that Glycine could help. This was news to me since I had only associated Glycine with body building and muscles. So then I really wanted to give it a try for sleep issues.
    And so I ordered this bottle. I don’t have any loyalty to any Glycine brand yet. It was a pretty random brand choice. It’s my first time trying Glycine so it wasn’t easy to choose with the vast variety on amazon. So my brand choice is totally random. Maybe the price and review numbers is why I landed on this brand. I can’t recall. Just had to choose and start somewhere. So I pulled the trigger and just placed an order to try Glycine.

    So now I take one Glycine in the later evening and then two more Glycine right near and closer to bedtime. And I always get drowsy with the Glycine. Every time. I can fall asleep now and I don’t tend to fight it. The Glycine seems to help with that too. It really does work for me and I’m a deeply ingrained night owl. I prob have a hyperactive brain. I know I used to be like this since I was a baby. A serious Night Owl. My mother said I was always playing in my crib at midnight a lot. Sigh. It’s inherent and nothing I can really do except manage it.

    If I take the Glycine too early though I I’ll sleep too soon and wake up at like 3-4 am. So I take it closer to 10 pm to get sleepy and to stay asleep longer.
    Glycine seems to really help me with my insomnia and I take it nightly now. Three is what is mentioned on bottle. And that’s my full dose so far.
    Since I’m a supplement user I’m already very aware to look for changes and side effects.
    So with any supplement I always monitor any minute or major changes and any extra side effects. I have none with Glycine. None. Just the good ones I wanted. My experience is just having that desired drowsy effect that I need. It works well for me and is mild in side effects but powerful in what I need it for. No cotton mouth no headaches no weird dreams no hangover head no lingering drowsiness. Just a good drowsy effect upon taking it and then a good sleep and a good wake up. It’s mild in use but powerful too. It has nothing bad about it. It works perfectly to address my insomnia with my overly active brain.

    I hope this helps everyone who might be looking for a good insomnia and sleep regulator. This does it for me. And I’ve tried many things."
    great product
    "The glycine that I was taking was out of stock. I like Life Extension products, I decided to try it. I take two capsules 1 or 2 hours before bedtime. I open the capsule and put the powder inside almond milk. . It doesn’t mix well but whatever is left I eat it with a spoon. Glycine helps me to sleep better, deep sleep. I’m still trying to figure out what time is the best time to take it because sometimes I feel sleepy when is time to wake up. I really liked this product"
