7Nutrition Glycine 250g Pure
7Nutrition Glycine is a dietary supplement containing glycine – one of the simplest and most important amino acids found in the human body. Glycine is a proteinogenic amino acid involved in many metabolic processes, including protein synthesis, production of important biological compounds, and regulation of gene expression.
Although glycine can be synthesized in the body, the endogenous production may be insufficient to meet all metabolic needs, which is why it is sometimes considered a conditionally essential amino acid.
Glycine (NH₂CH₂COOH) is the simplest proteinogenic amino acid that is a component of proteins and participates in numerous metabolic pathways. It is involved, among others, in the synthesis of creatine, purines, heme, and glutathione – one of the most important antioxidants in the body.
Effects of glycine in the body:
- Participates in metabolic processes
Glycine is involved in many metabolic reactions and serves as a precursor to important biological molecules such as creatine, glutathione, and purines. Therefore, it plays a significant role in cellular function and energy processes.
- Supports nervous system function
This amino acid also acts as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, participating in both inhibitory and excitatory processes via glycine and NMDA receptors.
- May support sleep quality
Studies suggest that consuming glycine before sleep may improve subjective sleep quality and support falling asleep by influencing body temperature and the nervous system.
- Involvement in antioxidant processes
Glycine participates in the synthesis of glutathione, one of the most important cellular antioxidants, which helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
