L-glycine is involved in protein synthesis and therefore may help support muscle repair and formation.* It also is an important amino acid in the structure of collagen and therefore may help promote healthy tissues and healing.* Glycine’s potential usefulness for treating individuals who have undergone strokes was investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 200 […]
L-glycine is involved in protein synthesis and therefore may help support muscle repair and formation.* It also is an important amino acid in the structure of collagen and therefore may help promote healthy tissues and healing.* Glycine’s potential usefulness for treating individuals who have undergone strokes was investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 200 participants. The results suggest that glycine can protect against the spreading damage to the brain that usually follows a stroke and can prevent neural damage.59
