Glycine Helps Prevent Degenerative Disease

– Glycine Helps Prevent Degenerative Disease

Taking a supplement of the food additive glycine helps to prevent degenerative diseases such as osteoporosis, Spanish researchers report.

A doctoral thesis presented at the University of Granada established that degenerative diseases may be due to a lack of the amino acid glycine, which is present in foods such as fish, meat or dairy products.

Dr. Patricia de Paz Lugo supervised by Drs. Enrique Melendez Hevia, David Melendez Morales and Jose Antonio Lupianez Cara established that the direct intake of glycine as a food additive helps to prevent arthrosis and other degenerative diseases, in addition to other diseases related to a weakness in the mechanical structure of the organism, including the difficulty of repairing physical injuries.
