Intervention type: OTHER
Group type: SHAM_COMPARATOR
Intervention: Cellulose (control)
Description: Cellulose (a vegetal product, in powder form, used as dietary fiber, that is not digested or absorbed in the intestines), will be supplemented in the form of water soluble powder.

Intervention type: DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Glycine
Description: Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, they are essential organic compounds in the normal diet, and are also individually administered as nutritional supplements. Glycine will be supplied in the form of water soluble powder (the commercial form), for one daily dose. The corresponding amino acid doses were established based on the highest intakes at the 99th percentile in adult men (Institute of Medicine. 2005.
