Confidence
Our analysis shows this is a legitimate educational platform, not a commercial venture. The site was created by students from KSZC Fehérgyarmati Petőfi Sándor Technikum and placed 3rd nationally in the Országos Diákprojekt Verseny competition, receiving a special award from NJSZT (the Hungarian Computer Science Society) in June 2026. The content is original scientific material about glycine's effects on sleep, liver detoxification, and collagen synthesis, with no scam-family matches or malware detections. While the site includes affiliate links to supplement retailers, it does not sell products directly and operates transparently as an informational resource. Web searches found zero scam reports or complaints, and the project has been shared openly on Reddit and social media by the school. The absence of contact details and business registration is consistent with a student project rather than a fraudulent operation.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site is an informational resource written in Hungarian about L-glycine, covering its biochemical role, health effects (sleep quality, stress reduction, muscle and skin health, liver detoxification), dosage recommendations, and scientific research. Content is original and educational, not promotional for a specific brand. The page includes affiliate links to external supplement retailers (vitalabo.com, ecosupplements.eu) but does not operate as a direct e-commerce shop.

Infrastructure

Valid SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt with 78 days remaining. Hosting IP 145.223.124.166 has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. External resources loaded are standard (Google Fonts, jsDelivr CDN, unpkg) and pose no security risk. No malware, phishing, or suspicious code detected by our antivirus network or sandbox analysis.

Domain History

Domain registration details are not publicly available via WHOIS. The site is recent and active as of the 2026 student competition. No evidence of domain hijacking, redirection abuse, or homoglyph attacks. The domain is not indexed in global traffic rankings, consistent with a new educational project with limited audience reach.

Web Reputation

Zero scam reports found across consumer-complaint databases and review aggregators. The project received positive recognition from NJSZT and the school's social media, and was shared by participants on Reddit in r/Supplements and r/programmingHungary. No negative mentions, complaints, or fraud allegations detected. Independent trust-rating sites show no data (expected for a new, non-commercial educational site).

Risk Factors
4
  • No contact email, phone, or postal address listed — consistent with a student project rather than a business.
  • Domain not indexed in global traffic rankings — reflects limited audience reach typical of a new educational site.
  • Affiliate links to external supplement retailers present — standard for educational content but users should verify product claims independently.
  • WHOIS details unavailable — common for newer domains but limits transparency verification.
Positive Signals
5
  • Zero malware detections across 92 antivirus engines and clean browser blocklists.
  • Won 3rd place nationally in Országos Diákprojekt Verseny and received NJSZT special award in June 2026.
  • Original educational content about L-glycine with scientific references, not plagiarised or cloned.
  • Transparent operation as a student project; shared openly on school social media and Reddit.
  • Clean hosting IP with zero abuse reports and valid SSL certificate.
AI Recommendation
This site is safe to visit for educational information about L-glycine. If you follow affiliate links to purchase supplements, verify product claims independently and check the retailer's credentials before entering payment details.

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above

We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for glicinhub.eu and found zero scam reports or complaints. Instead, we found positive recognition: the site is documented as a winning student project from KSZC Fehérgyarmati Petőfi Sándor Technikum that placed 3rd nationally in the 2026 Országos Diákprojekt Verseny and received a special award from NJSZT (the Hungarian Computer Science Society). The project has been shared transparently on the school's social media and on Reddit by participants seeking survey respondents for glycine research. For a new educational initiative, the absence of negative mentions combined with documented institutional recognition is a strong positive signal.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on glicinhub.eu and not a lookalike like g-licinhub.eu.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.
