I had wanted for a long time to get glycine for better sleep in combination with melatonin.

The main thing is that this is the cheapest glycine I have found, I have searched online on foreign sites, all are very expensive. This one is in powder form and comes with a scoop with two measuring spoons, one for 0.5g and one for 1g.

Regarding the dosage, I have extensively read research and saw that in an experiment where they gave 90 grams every day for a long time, they did not observe negative effects. Obviously, 90 grams per day is excessive.

Doctors usually recommend from 1 to 5 grams because theoretically it is more than enough for the intended purpose.

Also, when you take it does not matter that much, but if you take it during the day it helps fight depression, if you take it at night before sleep it helps you fall asleep better. It is recommended to take it on an empty stomach half an hour before eating if you take it during the day or on an empty stomach before sleep.

The best absorption of glycine occurs in the presence of collagen, so if you also have gelatin powder you can combine it in a drink.

Personally, I take 1 gram dissolved in juice three times a day, once in the morning, once at noon, and once before I sleep. In the juice I put 1 gram of glycine and a teaspoon of gelatin, mix it well with a mixer and let it sit for a few minutes for the gelatin to activate and become almost like jelly. Always at least half an hour before food so the stomach is empty.

From Ostrovit I also have vitamin C in powder form which I add to the drink once a day since that one is enough at 1g/day, I am satisfied so far.

I am also attaching photos of the label.

P.S. The first time I ordered two together, they came in two plastic containers. Now that I ordered again, they came in a zip lock bag. I would prefer to know in advance who has the container and who has the zip lock so I can choose the one with the container.
