Carlson Corner: Glycine
Glycine, well-recognized for supporting muscle, bone, and brain health, is also an important amino acid for restful sleep. It helps our body make serotonin, a hormone and neurotransmitter that has significant effects on sleep and mood. Studies show higher levels of Glycine may help us fall asleep more quickly, increase sleep efficiency, improve sleep quality, and promote deeper sleep.
