L-Glycine Food Grade
L-Glycine Food Grade is an amino acid that is naturally produced by the body and can also be found in certain foods such as meat, fish, dairy, and legumes. It is used in the body to make proteins and is involved in transmitting chemical signals in the brain. L-Glycine Food Grade has been found to have several potential benefits, including improving sleep quality, reducing fatigue, improving cognitive function, reducing symptoms of schizophrenia, and reducing muscle wasting.
A study found that taking 3 grams of glycine before bed significantly improved fatigue feelings, reduced sleepiness, and improved performance compared to a placebo. Another study found that high doses of glycine improved symptoms of schizophrenia. Glycine may also reduce muscle wasting, a condition that occurs with aging, malnutrition, and when the body is under stress.
The recommended dosage of L-Glycine Food Grade is up to 6 grams daily for 4 weeks. Most people who take glycine will not experience any side effects, but some may have gastrointestinal symptoms such as upset stomach.
