Glycine

Glycine is the simplest amino acid in the body, but also one of the most versatile. It’s involved in the synthesis of collagen (glycine is collagen’s most abundant amino acid), glutathione (the body’s master intracellular antioxidant), creatine and bile acids. Taken in the evening (3 to 5 g), glycine improves sleep quality by lowering core body temperature and increasing peripheral blood flow. Crystallised glycine powder is the most economical format. It dissolves easily in water and has a slightly sweet taste. Combining glycine with magnesium bisglycinate in the evening is our most recommended sleep protocol in our Paris shop. Glycine is also recommended for joint health (collagen), detoxification (glutathione) and sport (creatine). On sale in our Paris shop at Herba Barona.

Scientific research on glycine has produced promising results over recent decades. Numerous clinical studies, published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, have assessed glycine’s effects on various health markers. Results show significant benefits when dosages match those used in research protocols. The quality of the raw material, the titration of active compounds, and the bioavailability of the chosen form are all key factors in effectiveness. That’s why, at Herba Barona in Paris, we select products that use patented, standardised ingredients whose effectiveness is documented by clinical studies. Generic, non-standardised formulations, even when cheaper, don’t offer the same guarantees of effectiveness. Our in-store team in Paris can explain the differences between forms and dosages.

Glycine pairs perfectly with magnesium bisglycinate in the evening (glycine and magnesium have synergistic relaxing effects), collagen (glycine is collagen’s most abundant amino acid), NAC (a glutathione precursor, of which glycine is also a component), vitamin C (needed for collagen synthesis) and melatonin (sleep).
