GLYCINE: The Most Underrated Amino Acid for Nervous System + Fascia Repair
If you’re anxious, inflamed, tight, wired but tired, You might not need another supplement.
You might just need more glycine.
Here’s why:
Glycine = Calm in molecule form
It’s your body’s brake pedal.
It slows down the nervous system, quiets the mind, and helps you sleep deeper than you have in months.
Without it?
Your system is stuck in overdrive.
It’s your fascia’s best friend
Fascia is made of collagen and collagen is made 1/3 of glycine.
No glycine → weak collagen → tight, stiff fascia → pain, poor posture, emotional tension.
Glycine brings back fluidity, strength, and flow.
It feeds your vagus nerve
Your vagus nerve is the highway of your nervous system, from gut to brain.
Glycine activates it, calms it, restores balance.
It’s like breathwork in amino acid form.
It detoxifies your brain + liver
Glycine is a precursor for glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant.
This means less brain fog, faster healing, and less toxic load weighing down your nervous system.
It’s a trauma release aid
Somatic work, breath, fascia release all powerful.
But if your system is depleted, your body holds on.
Glycine gives your body the raw material to let go.
I take 6g before bed and 3g into my coffee / tea
It improves sleep, digestion, and insulin sensitivity
Low glycine = poor sleep
Low glycine = blood sugar swings
Low glycine = gut lining damage
Add it back → your body starts to regulate again.
It’s the missing piece for fascia + nervous system healing
If you do fascia maneuvers, breathwork, cold exposure, prayer and still feel stuck, you might be missing the internal glue.
Glycine is that glue.
I take it every day.
