Also see: Thyroid peroxidase activity is inhibited by amino acids Gelatin, Glycine, and Metabolism Gelatin > Whey The selection of proteins should minimize the amino acids tryptophan (which is the precursor of serotonin) and cysteine (which, like tryptophan, suppresses thyroid function, by including gelatin and fruits. Gelatin is 22% glycine, which protects the lungs and [...]

The production of progesterone increases in most animals in the spring, and it is [...]
J Biosci. 2009 Dec;34(6):853-72. A weak link in metabolism: the metabolic capacity for glycine biosynthesis does not satisfy the need for collagen synthesis. Meléndez-Hevia E, De Paz-Lugo P, Cornish-Bowden A, Cárdenas ML. In a previous paper, we pointed out that the capability to synthesize glycine from serine is constrained by the stoichiometry of the glycine [...]
