When I contacted companies that sell - glycine supplements - , they said their glycine supplement was made from (non-organic) corn.
I know that glycine is also found in some animal products.

Since isolated glycine and other amino acids are produced as by products, the concentration in the original source may not be an issue. Huge amounts of corn are processed for carbohydrates and ethanol, for example. The oil, proteins and hydrolyzed amino acids are by products. Similarly amino acids are produced from whey by products of cheese.

Would it matter if it's a pure product or as close to pure as possible? I remember an interview where Dr. Peat talked about Progest-E. And he said it doesn't matter whether the diosgenin was synthesized from soy or other products, because the end product was so pure that the source didn't matter anymore.
