The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
excess methionine can deplete your glycine and when your body needs to make extra glycine for methylation balance it may not have enough glycine to make things like collagen for hair skin nails or for glutathione which is a main endogenous antioxidant
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
glycine is a conditionally essential amino acid so if we use it all up and we can't make enough then we will to become deficient in glycine which means we will not be able to make imported proteins like collagen and glutathione
if we don't have enough glycine we won't be able to make collagen adequately and we won't be able to make glutathione and then you highlighted other roles of glycine in the body neurotransmitter important for glucose control
and you have to give your body enough glycine. Eating collagenous foods or collagen powders. That's one of the rate limiting amino acids for glutathione and for collagen. Glycine is essential for both.
