    Glossary Glycine

    simplest amino acid, vital for protein and collagen synthesis

    Glycine is the simplest amino acid, which serves as a building block for proteins in the body. It plays a crucial role in the synthesis of collagen, which is essential for maintaining healthy skin, hair, and connective tissues. Glycine also functions as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, helping to regulate nerve impulses and support cognitive functions.
