Description

Swanson Glycine delivers 500 mg of this important amino acid per serving. Glycine is one of the three foundational amino acids—along with arginine and methionine—that the body uses to manufacture creatine, which in turn supports muscle growth and protein synthesis, and enhances energy production and cognitive function. Supplementing with glycine helps supply your body with the materials it needs to promote creatine production.

The simplest amino acid, glycine is found in the protein of all life forms, glycine is of major importance in the synthesis of proteins, peptides, purines, nucleic acids and other amino acids. As a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, glycine is involved in motor control and sensory perception. Glycine may also function as a novel antioxidant.

What are the benefits of taking a glycine supplement?
Glycine is a versatile amino acid that supports numerous functions throughout the body. Swanson Glycine helps support protein synthesis, collagen production, creatine production, healthy nervous system function, and cellular antioxidant activity as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
How does glycine support collagen production?
Glycine is the most abundant amino acid found in collagen, making it an important building block for the body's natural collagen synthesis. Adequate glycine intake helps support healthy skin, joints, bones, tendons, and connective tissues, contributing to overall structural health and wellness.
How does glycine support creatine production?
Glycine is one of the three amino acids the body uses to naturally produce creatine, along with arginine and methionine. Creatine plays an important role in cellular energy production and helps support muscle function and physical performance. By supplying glycine, this formula provides nutritional support for the body's natural creatine synthesis.
How does glycine support sleep?
Glycine is a naturally occurring amino acid that functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, helping support the body's natural relaxation processes.
