BulkSupplements.com Glycine Powder - 500g (1.1 lbs) (Pack of 1)

I bought this glycine powder to help with sleep and relaxation, especially because I work long shifts. It mixes easily in water and has a slightly sweet taste, which I don’t mind. I usually take it at night, and I’ve noticed it helps me feel more relaxed before النوم. It’s simple and doesn’t have added ingredients, which I like. Pros: easy to mix, mild taste, helps with relaxation Cons: results are subtle and take consistency Overall, it’s a good option if you’re looking for something simple to support sleep and recovery.

As someone with endometriosis, I’m always looking for simple ways to support my nervous system, sleep, and overall wellness. I’ve been adding this glycine powder into my nightly routine and have really been enjoying it. The powder mixes easily into water or tea without a gritty texture, and the taste is very mild. I appreciate that it’s a clean single-ingredient supplement with no unnecessary fillers. It’s become an easy staple in my routine, especially during stressful or flare-up periods. Also, there’s no side effects that I’ve noticed. Great value for the amount you get as well!

Nice pleasant taste slightly sweet. Use to make organic green sun tea. I have RA making exercise difficult. Used to take a couple days to recover just from swimming. It’s been 13 years of agony to be honest and exercise seemed pointless. And then things changed. Thanks to Alpha Lipoic Acid I was immediately able to walk again without pain. Up and down stairs and to the backyard and even wore sandals which is super nice after years in tennis shoes. The big change came after 3-4 days of 1-3 taps of glycine in organic green tea basically went back normal exercise initially a five mile walk (took off my smartwatch long ago, less pressure). Then, bike riding equal distance followed by an hours swim. Tomorrow is day 3. I’m not having any lingering leg or hand pain from riding as I always have since RA diagnosis. Im thankful for this supplement and for finding ALA. Im thankful for everyday I’m able to enjoy exercise without the accompanying pain and ensuing depression. I pray to God this is my new normal.

As described and as desired.

I have been taking this for about a week and wow am I impressed with the results. I have taken a dose in the late morning and a dose after dinner. While the morning dose didn't make me drowsy at all, the first 4 nights I got some of the deepest sleep I could remember. I would wake up and say to my SO "wow I feel great". on the fifth night I felt like I wasn't nearly as tired as I usually am, and slept pretty normally. Besides excellent sleep, my daytime energy has improved drastically. The energy doesn't feel like something that 'wears off' or makes me jittery or high strung, but instead feels like I'm just younger. The calmness I feel is amazing too. It's not the kind of calm that you get from sedatives or herbal remedies, just level headed without stress. I take about a teaspoon in the morning and two teaspoons after dinner. The only issue I have with this powder is that it clumps easily, so I can't funnel it into a water bottle. I swear my skin looks better too, but it's only been a week. I will definitely make this into a subscription.

Dr recommended this to help my sleep issues. She recc’ed a trio of supplements but this was the only one that was new to me (the other two are inositol and Magnesium glycinate). In combination with all the other things I’m doing towards better sleep during this new phase in life (peri-menopause??)—this has helped. But its true value to me is that it makes my matcha taste so good. I love coffee but bc of an increase in UTI’s and other reasons—I’ve bn needing to find an alternative to my morning beverage. Mushroom coffee, tea, tried so many—but nothing as satisfying. I’ve never liked matcha but I knew i could “train” my tongue if it was for all its health benefits (PCOS,etc). This glycine mixed w my matcha makes it my favorite part of my morning now!! We havent added sugar to any of our drinks for over a decade—so we can “save” that sugar and calories for something more worthy, lol. But this glycine gives just the slightest sweetness and makes the matcha not just palatable but delightful. And when i discovered alllll the other benefits of glycine powder like it aiding collagen production and hence helping joint health, SKINNNNN, reducing insulin resistance, helping produce glutathione (a powerful antioxidant), and so many more—I was hooked. It mixes so easily in hot beverages, helps me feel better overall. My skin looking better might be a placebo effect, but as part of a holistic approach to better sleep and health—I’ve been loving this glycine powder.

I've purchased this BulkSupplements Glycine multiple times. Every previous bag had the normal, slightly sweet odor that I expected from glycine. My most recent bag had a distinct fish odor, even after pouring the powder out of the package. What disappointed me most was the customer service. I contacted both the online chat and phone support and received the exact same scripted response that "a change in supplier may alter the smell, taste, texture, or color." No one actually addressed my concern. To make matters more confusing, the Certificate of Analysis they provided for my lot specifically lists the product as "odorless." Yet the product I received clearly was not. Rather than explaining that discrepancy or investigating the issue, they simply repeated the generic supplier explanation. I can't say whether the product is unsafe, but I can say the quality was noticeably different from previous purchases, and customer service offered no meaningful explanation. Buyers should compare the odor of each new lot to previous purchases. If your glycine has a strong fish smell despite the COA stating it is odorless, don't just accept the canned response, ask for a real explanation.

Only 2 days in. 1 tsp in a glass of water before bed, seems to be getting me better sleep in a postmenopausal woman.
