It is well known to increase glutathione, an essential intracellular antioxidant, by providing a stable form of L-cysteine, the rate-limiting precursor for glutathione synthesis. The number of conditions with impaired glutathione homeostasis continues to grow, including not only cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, pulmonary, and age-related diseases, but there is also growing clinical recognition of metabolic disorders related to environmental toxin exposure, such as diabetes and persistent organic pollutants. By restoring glutathione levels, NAC is also well established as the most effective treatment for acetaminophen toxicity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, NAC's ability to cleave disulfide bonds confers efficacy as a mucolytic agent, with clinical benefit for individuals with COPD and pulmonary fibrosis. The breaking of disulfide bonds may also be the same mechanism by which it lowers homocysteine and enhances endothelial function in coronary artery disease. NAC has immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects, improving flu symptoms and the activity of SLE. By modulating glutamatergic and neurotrophic pathways, NAC has also shown benefit for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and autism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unytii - Suppléments et Produits Naturels","offers":[{"title":"90 capsules","offer_id":45076220117045,"sku":"NAC-bioclinic-naturals-90c","price":19.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/4865\/3365\/files\/8098772615221-1.webp?v=1783671604","url":"https:\/\/www.ocanova.ca\/products\/nac-500mg","provider":"Ocanova Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
