Glycine: A Foundational Amino Acid for Relaxation, Detox, and Repair
Thorne’s Glycine provides a pure, potent dose of a versatile semi-essential amino acid that plays a critical role in numerous bodily functions. Although the body can produce some glycine, modern diets and high-stress lifestyles often create a higher demand. This supplement supports everything from restful sleep and a relaxed mood to liver detoxification and the production of the body’s master antioxidant, glutathione. It’s a foundational tool for supporting the body’s core metabolic, structural, and neurological processes.
How It Works: The Multi-Faceted Roles of Glycine
Glycine is a simple yet powerful amino acid that contributes to a wide array of health benefits through several key mechanisms.
Promoting Restful Sleep and a Calm Mood
In the central nervous system, glycine acts as an inhibitory, or calming, neurotransmitter. This action helps to quiet an over-aroused brain, making it a valuable tool for promoting relaxation and improving sleep quality. By helping to lower core body temperature, glycine can help you fall asleep more quickly and achieve a deeper, more restorative state of sleep without causing daytime drowsiness.
Supporting Detoxification and Antioxidant Defenses
Glycine is a key component of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that is crucial for protecting cells from oxidative damage. It also plays a major role in Phase II liver detoxification, where it binds to and helps eliminate unwanted chemicals and toxins from the body. Furthermore, glycine is a primary component of collagen, the main structural protein in skin, tendons, ligaments, and bones, thus supporting the health and integrity of connective tissues throughout the body.
