Symptoms to watch for

Monitor for neurological and digestive effects when combining Glycine with Bee Propolis.

Seek medical advice if you experience: persistent mood changes, rapid heartbeat, muscle stiffness, excessive drowsiness, or allergic symptoms. If you take any prescription medications (especially antidepressants or neurological drugs), consult your doctor before adding amino acid supplements.
