What is Glycine?
Glycine is a conditionally essential amino acid that functions as both an inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter. It is the chemically simplest and most ubiquitous of all amino acids in the human body. Glycine plays a crucial role in detoxification by binding to harmful substances and converting them into forms that can be safely excreted.
Life Extension offers Glycine in a convenient dosage of 1000 mg per capsule, making it easy to achieve the recommended intake. These high-quality Glycine capsules support your body in a natural and effective way.

In accordance with European regulations on health claims, we cannot make specific claims about the effects of Glycine. Life Extension is not permitted to make statements about nutrients without approved health claims by the European Commission. These claims are approved based on scientific evidence, evaluated by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Health claims are statements about the relationship between nutrition and health.
Health claims are approved if the evidence meets strict requirements. For amino acids, this is complex because much of the evidence is traditional and does not meet modern scientific standards. Therefore, the European Commission has not yet established definitive assessment criteria for claims regarding amino acids.

When sharing information about wellness and health, we encounter limits set by European and Dutch regulations. These restrictions are in place to protect you and ensure that we do not make unfounded health claims. It is important to note that, while traditional or non-Western medical practices have their own place and respect, EU legislation requires that health claims must be based on recognized scientific evidence. Within these frameworks, we strive to be as informative as possible without exceeding legal boundaries.
