Mindsip insights from this episode:
Utilize glycine to enhance sleep quality through temperature regulation
Glycine helps induce sleep by activating NMDA receptors, which causes blood vessels to dilate and helps lower your core body temperature.
Utilize glycine to enhance REM sleep stages
Glycine might slightly reduce some stages of deep sleep and, in turn, increase the amount of REM sleep.
Take glycine to fall asleep twice as fast
In one study, taking glycine cut the time it took for participants to fall asleep by about half.
Implement 3 grams of glycine before sleep for better results
The protocol used in most successful studies was 3 grams of glycine consumed approximately one hour before sleep.
Consider funding sources when evaluating glycine sleep studies
All of the human studies on glycine for sleep were industry-funded or linked to industry, which may impact your impression of the results.
Recognize glycine's limited impact on sleep improvement
While glycine does seem to help with sleep, its effect is very small in certain measures and only a bit more impressive in others.
