SENIORS’ LIVING LIFE<br />
New solution for a<br />
better nights sleep<br />
and improved health!<br />
Deep regenerative sleep is<br />
so important to feeling and<br />
performing our best. A lack of or<br />
poor quality sleep is associated<br />
with increased risk for many<br />
chronic diseases, including obesity,<br />
type 2 diabetes, heart disease,<br />
depression, and many more.<br />
Unfortunately many adults report<br />
occasional bouts of insomnia with<br />
one in three saying they suffer from<br />
sleeplessness or disturbed sleep on<br />
a more chronic basis, to the point<br />
that it regularly impairs daytime<br />
functioning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> good news is an inexpensive,<br />
naturally occurring amino acid<br />
known as glycine has been clinically<br />
researched in Japan and shown to<br />
be highly beneficial in supporting<br />
healthy sleep. Subjects who were<br />
given three grams of glycine one hour<br />
before bedtime fell asleep much sooner,<br />
as well as exhibited brainwave patterns<br />
associated with deep sleep compared to<br />
control subjects who did not supplement.<br />
On waking the subjects who took the<br />
glycine woke reporting being refreshed<br />
with no indication that glycine produced<br />
a “morning hangover” or any foggy<br />
feeling common with those who use<br />
prescription sleeping medication.<br />
Glycine is known to accumulate in the<br />
pineal gland and is believed to play and<br />
important role in “disconnecting” the<br />
brain from the body during REM (rapid<br />
eye movement) sleep cycles. Glycine also<br />
supports healthy growth hormone (GH)<br />
secretion that is associated with strength,<br />
good health and vitality whereas low<br />
secretion of GH is associated with<br />
advanced ageing and increased disease.<br />
Other clinical research has shown<br />
glycine supplementation to improve<br />
memory and attention in young to older<br />
adults.<br />
Spanish researchers have studied the<br />
effect of glycine supplementation in<br />
600 subjects between the ages of 4 and<br />
85 years suffering from osteoarthritis,<br />
osteoporosis or physical injuries.<br />
Participants were given 5 grams of<br />
glycine in the morning and 5 grams<br />
in the evening. In all cases symptoms<br />
significantly improved.<br />
Glycine is a very safe amino acid<br />
that appears to be highly beneficial for<br />
a quality sleep as well as general good<br />
health.<br />
