Glycine
Glycine 5000 mg
Food supplement, 450 g powder
Glycine from the Canadian company Natural Factors is a high-quality product that contributes to building lean muscle mass, normalizing blood sugar levels, and normal glucose metabolism.
Main benefits:
Helps build lean muscle mass.
Helps maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Provides a high-quality source of glycine obtained through fermentation.
Glycine is one of the most abundant amino acids in the human body, with high concentrations in muscles, skin and connective tissue. It plays a key role in numerous biochemical processes. It participates in the synthesis of muscle proteins, DNA and in the protection against oxidative stress.
The body's need for glycine increases during physical stress - intense training, aging or illness. Although the body can synthesize a certain amount of glycine, supplementing in free form is significantly more effective.
Glycine provides carbon and nitrogen – essential “building blocks” for the production of new proteins, replacement of damaged tissues and maintenance of lean muscle mass. It aids in the synthesis of creatine – an important source of energy for muscles – and thus contributes to greater strength and endurance during physical exertion and training.
In addition, glycine stimulates the formation of collagen – a major component of joints and ligaments – which is important for good mobility and body stability.
As a precursor to glutathione – a powerful internal antioxidant – glycine helps protect cells from free radicals and reduces inflammatory processes in the body.
It also activates the release of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which improves insulin sensitivity and the transport of glucose from the blood into cells. Glycine influences gluconeogenesis – the process of glucose production in the liver – which further supports energy balance and blood sugar control.
Natural Factors Glycine is an effective product designed specifically for active people and athletes. It provides a pure, artificially colored, and preservative-free formula produced through natural fermentation. Each scoop contains 5 grams of glycine with a neutral taste, allowing for easy mixing and personalized dosing – from 1 to 3 scoops per day, depending on your needs, activity level, and metabolic health. It is an excellent choice for vegetarians, vegans, and anyone looking for effective support for post-workout recovery, muscle maintenance, and healthy connective tissues.
