Why do people take this supplement?

Our L-Glycine Capsules are commonly included in supplement routines for:


• Supporting relaxation and evening wellbeing routines

• Supporting normal collagen formation in the body

• Supporting general wellbeing and daily nutritional balance

• Providing a convenient way to include the amino acid glycine in your routine


Glycine is a naturally occurring amino acid, which means it is one of the building blocks the body uses to produce proteins. Amino acids play many roles in the body and are commonly included in supplement routines focused on supporting general wellbeing.

Glycine is naturally found in protein-rich foods such as meat, fish and dairy, and it is also an important component of collagen, the structural protein found in skin, connective tissue, cartilage and tendons.

Because glycine is involved in several natural processes within the body, many people choose to include it as part of their daily supplement routine, particularly alongside balanced nutrition and an active lifestyle.

This formula provides L-glycine in a convenient capsule format, making it easy to incorporate into everyday routines.


When should I take this supplement?

Many people prefer taking L-Glycine with water as part of their daily routine. Taking it at the same time each day can help build consistency.

This supplement can be taken during the day or as part of an evening wind-down routine, depending on personal preference.

Can I take this with other Supplements?

Many people choose to take amino acid supplements alongside other vitamins, minerals or wellness supplements as part of their daily routine.

If you are pregnant, taking medication or have any health concerns, it is always best to speak with a healthcare professional before introducing a new supplement.


How should I take this?

We recommend taking this product with a glass of water and alongside food.

Some customers choose to mix this with food such as yoghurt or smoothies. However, we always recommend following the serving suggestion on the label where possible.


Fillers or bulking agents?

We keep our formulas as clean, natural and affordable as possible.

In this product, a small amount of microcrystalline cellulose is used to help ensure capsules are filled consistently and that each serving delivers the correct amount of active ingredient.

Microcrystalline cellulose helps keep ingredients evenly distributed so each capsule contains the correct amount of active ingredient. It is a natural plant fibre commonly used in foods and supplements to help capsules or tablets form consistently.

The formula also contains a small amount of magnesium stearate. Magnesium stearate is a compound made from magnesium and stearic acid, a naturally occurring fatty acid found in foods such as coconut oil and cocoa butter. In supplement manufacturing it is used in very small amounts to help prevent ingredients from sticking to equipment during production. This helps ensure capsules are produced consistently and that each serving contains the correct amount of active ingredient.

Magnesium stearate is widely used across the supplement and food industry and is considered safe for use in the small amounts used in capsule production.

The capsule shell itself is made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), a plant-derived material commonly used to create vegan capsule shells.

These ingredients make up less than 1% of the overall formula and are used to support quality, consistency and accurate dosing.
