Product description
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid and has the simplest structure of all amino acids, allowing it to fit easily within protein chains and make space for structurally larger amino acids. This feature makes it very important for specific bodily functions. Glycine is also a precursor of creatine, which is used to construct DNA and RNA. And it supports glycogen storage, thereby making more glucose available for energy production.The amino acid Glycine is non-chiral and only has one form without a D- or L- designation.

Since 1968, NOW®has been making top quality products that are tested to the highest standards to empower people to lead healthier lives.

- Reviewed in Canada on May 25, 2025Verified PurchaseThis stuff got me crawling up the walls and spinning my head around on a nightly basis. Absolute must-buy!
- Reviewed in Canada on July 14, 2023Verified PurchaseThis product works for sleep!! I have suffered with lack of sleep since menopause. I would wake up at 3:30 to use the washroom and not be able to get back to sleep. So frustrating!! So, I just got into the habit of getting up at 3:30. What sleep I did have was quite broken up and I never seemed to be able to sleep deeply like I used to. I have taken so many different types of sleep aids over the years, behavioral sleep therapy, sleep apnea evaluations, therapy, etc, etc, etc but nothing really worked.
A pharmacist friend recommended this to me (as she is just found out how effective it is for her own sleep), a couple of months ago and I have been using it for a month now. She recommended 3,000 mg taken an hour to a half an hour before bedtime. I thought I would start out at 2,000 mg and see how it went. 2,000 mg is more than enough for me! (I will be turning 65 this year). I take one an hour before sleep and another one a half an hour before sleep. I am now sleeping from about 10:45 till usually 6:00. I still have the usual get up to go to the bathroom times during the night but seem to go back to sleep without anxious thoughts keeping me awake. (I guess it must be calming to the nervous system). My friend told me that it certainly isn't something that can hurt me and so I don't have to worry about taking it long-term. I have done a lot of research on it since and I'm truly amazed that with all the doctors I have seen about my sleep over the years, no one recommended it to me!!! What a difference it would have made in my life if I had known earlier!!! Grrrr!! I'm hoping to save other women from the same pain. If you have magnesium bisglycinate handy, it will do the same thing as it has a lot of glycine in it (around a thousand milligrams per magnesium pill). If I take two of those it also works, so if you need magnesium also that might help.
Sweet dreams. Cathy

Reviewed in Canada on July 20, 2024Verified PurchaseJe prends une capsule au coucher avec 100 mg de l-théanine et je dors bien. C’est vrai que depuis la période de la pré ménopause le sommeil profond et réparateur est plutôt rare mais maintenant c’est avec les années et de bons suppléments c’est vraiment mieux. Il n’y a pas d’effet secondaire, après 8 heures de sommeil, je suis prête pour accomplir une journée de travail avec un bon niveau de concentration et d’énergie ☀️

- Reviewed in Canada on September 9, 2024Verified PurchaseGood it does work
- Reviewed in Canada on November 25, 2024Verified PurchaseMy doctor said to take this at night for a better sleep. I found it helpful right away
- Reviewed in Canada on February 16, 2025Verified PurchaseIt works for sleep.
I have only used it for 3 nights and so far it makes my sleep a bit better.
However, it is very hard to tolerate the side effects.
Grogginess:
I never felt so groggy. Very unpleasant feeling and it last the whole day. I started with 3 grams. Reduced to 2 grams. I still feel groggy but not as much. I will try 1 gram next.
Sleep breathing disorder
It elevates sleep breathing disorder.
I am using an apple watch series 10 to track my sleep. According to apple watch, my sleep breathing disorder is elevated. apple watch uses this to detect sleep apnea.
Although it helps me sleep better, I decided to stop using it because of the side effects.
