Dream On ✨
Dozy Dust enhances deep sleep, promotes growth hormone production, boosts protein synthesis and, as the simplest amino acid, improves your rest and recovery by maximizing REM sleep.
Our secret ingredient is Glycine, the natural occurring, non-essential amino acid that our bodies already produces on their own.
Despite fixing your sleep being the most important thing you can do to improve your health, sleep is still just the tip of the iceberg for Dozy Dust, with numerous other benefits that contribute to your overall wellbeing.
Superior Sleep 😴
Glycine improves sleep in several ways. Primarily, it acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, which means that it helps to reduce the activity of neurons and promote relaxation. This reduces anxiety and makes it easier to fall asleep at night.
Glycine has also been shown to increase the production of melatonin (a hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle). By increasing melatonin levels, Glycine helps to promote healthy sleep patterns.
Finally, Glycine lowers your body temperature, reducing the time it takes to fall asleep, and improving the quality of sleep overall. This reduces the effects of sleep deprivation and positively contributes to your health and well-being.
Anti-Aging 🧬
Glycine is a key component of collagen. Collagen is a protein that is found in high amounts in the skin, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissues in the body, and is primarily responsible for the strength and elasticity of these tissues.
In collagen, Glycine is found at regular intervals along the protein chain, and it plays a key role in determining the structure and function of the protein.
By providing the building blocks for collagen synthesis, Glycine is essential for maintaining healthy skin, tendons and other connective tissues.
Memory & Focus 🧠
Glycine increases the production of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, which are proteins that play a critical role in learning and memory.
Another benefit of acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, is that it helps to reduce the activity of neurons and promote relaxation. This improves your mood and reduces anxiety, which points to improved cognitive function.
As we now know, Glycine has been shown to improve your sleep, and good quality sleep is essential for healthy cognitive function. By improving sleep, it indirectly improves your cognitive function.
Lean Muscle 💪
Glycine plays a critical role in the synthesis of creatine, which is a compound that is important for muscle energy metabolism. Creatine supplies energy to the muscles during intense physical activity, improving overall strength and endurance.
Additionally, Glycine has been shown to increase the production of human growth hormone (HGH), which is involved in the growth and development of muscle tissue.
As an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, Glycine helps to regulate muscle tone and prevent excessive muscle contractions. This helps to prevent muscle cramps and improves overall muscle function.
Gut Health 😊
Glycine helps to regulate the secretion of digestive enzymes, which are proteins that break down food in the digestive tract. By increasing the production of these enzymes, glycine improves the efficiency of digestion and reduces the symptoms of digestive disorders such as constipation and bloating.
Glycine has also been shown to increase the production of bile, which is a digestive fluid that helps to break down fats in the small intestine. By increasing bile production, it improves the absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins from the diet.
Glycine also has a protective effect on the lining of the digestive tract, which helps to reduce the risk of ulcers and other digestive disorders.
Liver Detox 🍸
Glycine helps to support the liver, which is the body's primary organ for detoxification. It is a precursor for the production of glutathione, which is a powerful antioxidant that helps to neutralize harmful substances in the body. By supporting the production of glutathione, glycine protects the liver from damage and improves its ability to detoxify the body.
Additionally, Glycine has been shown to have a protective effect on the lining of the digestive tract, which can help to reduce the absorption of harmful substances from the diet.
Finally, Glycine has a mild diuretic effect, which means that it helps to promote the elimination of toxins through the kidneys.
