NOW Foods Glycine 1000mg 250 Veg Capsules

NOW® Glycine supplies 1,000 mg of pharmaceutical-grade, free-form glycine in each vegetarian capsule. Glycine is the simplest amino acid, but it plays outsized roles in the body: it acts as a calming (inhibitory) neurotransmitter in the nervous system, serves as a building block for proteins including collagen, and takes part in the body's detoxification processes. Its calming action is why glycine is especially valued for promoting restful, quality sleep and supporting a relaxed nervous system, all without the grogginess associated with some sleep aids.*
