Form, dose and role.
- What it is
- Glycine is an amino acid used throughout the body and studied as a pre-sleep ingredient.
- Why DEXO chose it
- Human research has explored glycine in relation to sleep quality, which is exactly the job RECOVERY is asking it to do.
- Why this form
- Free-form glycine. Free-form glycine dissolves cleanly in the powder format.
- Why this dose
- 3 g before bed matches the amount used in available human sleep-quality research.
- Its role in the system
- Human research used 3 g before bed — the exact amount in RECOVERY — and examined sleep quality and next-day fatigue and vigilance after restricted sleep.
