Hydroxyproline, from gelatin, significantly enhances absorption of non-heme iron - in rats - according to this 2019 study.
Glycine did not share this property. Which further enhances the mounting evidence for pure glycine supplements over gelatin.
Dietary gelatin enhances non-heme iron absorption possibly via regulation of systemic iron homeostasis in rats

Edit: phone autocorrected the heading - should read “non-heme iron”, not “non-gene iron” - if a mod/admin could edit the title I would be appreciative
