Why is glicine sublingual?

[Thanawatse]

I have some Glicine amino acid in tablets, and it isa good supplement in my opinion – very cheap, and quite useful. Onething that got me wondering – in the instructions it says you haveto put the tablets under the toungue and let them dissolve. Is thereany special reason for that? Why can't I just swallow them?

Do you mean Glycine? As for under the tongue - never heard that so I've no idea why they'd say that. Can you take a photo of the label.
