Effectiveness Rating: Glycine vs Green Tea Extract

The effectiveness rating is a measure of the supplements' ability to reduce muscle damage. This rating answers the question of whether or not a supplement does what it claims. The evidence shows green tea extract is better than glycine in its ability to reduce muscle damage. Green Tea Extract should provide some positive results while glycine will not.

Confidence Rating: Glycine vs Green Tea Extract

Another factor to take into account when comparing supplements is the confidence rating. This rating is a measure of how valid each supplement's effectiveness rating is. Remember, the confidence rating is a measure of how much you can trust the effectiveness rating. This rating is based on how many studies are included in the database on a supplement's claims. Ideally, you want a high effectiveness AND confidence rating.

Green Tea Extract's confidence rating is higher than glycine's. This means green tea extract's effectiveness rating from above is more valid. This does not necessarily mean that green tea extract works better, it simply means the evidence (included in this database) backing up green tea extract is more established.
