Glycine It is a natural amino acid found in large quantities in collagen. Thanks to its sweet taste with no aftertaste, it is also suitable for sweetening foods and drinks. It is thermally stable, so it can also be used in baked goods and hot drinks. Its sweetness is approximately the same as regular granulated sugar.
Glycine is an amino acid that occurs in the largest amount in collagen proteins. In other protein sources, it is found only in small quantities. Today, we consume far less collagen-type proteins than our ancestors did, as foods like tripe, brawn, or bone broths are no longer very common. As a result, the ratio of amino acids consumed from proteins has shifted – for example, the proportion of glycine has decreased. From an evolutionary perspective, this is not typical for humans, so it is assumed that this may have adverse consequences. The positive effects of glycine supplementation only confirm this assumption.
Recommended dosage:
-
Before going to bed, dissolve 1 heaped teaspoon in 1–2 dl of lukewarm water (or another drink) and drink slowly, or allow it to dissolve in your mouth without water.
-
It is also recommended to take a small amount (1 level teaspoon or 1 mocha spoon) after a meal if the meal did not contain collagen-type protein. Glycine taken this way helps to balance the amino acid ratio.
-
It can also be added to coffee, drinks, or baked goods. It has a pleasant sweet taste with no aftertaste (when consuming the powder directly into the mouth, the sweetness can be unpleasantly intense).
Warning: Do not exceed the recommended daily dose! A food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Keep out of reach of children.
