Glycine is one of 20 amino acids synthesized in the human body. It helps build proteins needed for tissue and hormone maintenance (like Collagen & Creatine). Glycine is the simplest stable amino acid, with the chemical formula NH₂‐CH₂‐COOH.

Glycine is naturally sweet, yet contains zero sugar. You could liken it to about a 3rd of the sweetness to typical cooking sugar, but is subjective to each person individually.

Glycine is produced by your body through a metabolic process involving your kidneys and liver. As a supplement (like Dozy Dust) it is produced through the Strecker amino acid synthesis. This process produces Glycine with a high level (99%+) of purity.

Yes! It has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use as a food ingredient and dietary supplement. However, the FDA has not evaluated the claims & benefits of Glycine.

The recommended dosage is ~3 grams per day (1 scoop of Dozy Dust).

Yes, Glycine and L-Glycine are the same thing. L-Glycine is the common name for the amino acid Glycine. The "L" in L-Glycine stands for "levo," which is a term used to describe the specific configuration of the molecule. Amino acids can exist in different configurations, and the "L" form is the most common in proteins found in living organisms.

No, Glycine and lysine are two different amino acids that have different functions in the body and can be found in different types of foods.

Glycine and glycinate are related, but they are not the same thing. Glycine is an amino acid that is involved in many functions in the body. Glycinate, on the other hand, refers to a salt of glycine. It is formed by combining glycine with a mineral, such as magnesium or calcium. Glycinate supplements are commonly used as a source of these minerals, although they may also be used for their potential health benefits.

Yes. You'll experience better absorption if you take it on an empty stomach, but it will still experience the benefits if you take it with food. .
