NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) is a sulfur-containing acetylated form of the amino acid cysteine, offering greater stability and absorption than cysteine alone. NAC's health benefits stem from its anti-inflammatory, mucolytic, and antioxidant properties. NAC is a potent antioxidant and increases the production of the "master antioxidant" glutathione, offering protection against lipid peroxidation, oxidative stress, and free radical damage.

As a precursor to glutathione synthesis, NAC increases glutathione levels in the liver, lungs, kidneys, bone marrow, and brain. Glutathione boosts immune cell function (T-cells and NK cells) to fight viral and bacterial infections. It also provides liver protection and is used in phase 1 and 2 liver detoxification to bind harmful toxins, chemicals, and heavy metals.

NAC enhances respiratory health by reducing inflammation and breaking down mucus in the airways. NAC improves mucus consistency and clears excess mucus from the lungs, thereby relieving symptoms associated with bronchitis, sinusitis, and chronic respiratory conditions.

NAC supports cardiovascular health by reducing markers of heart disease. It is also important for collagen production; the formation of skin, hair, and nails; and offers anti-aging benefits by reducing age spots.

Key Features of NAC:
✔ Liver protection and support for phase 1 and 2 liver detoxification
✔ Breaks down and clears mucus from the lungs and respiratory system
✔ Precursor to glutathione, offering potent antioxidant protection in the body
✔ Reduces and inhibits markers of heart disease: homocysteine and lipoprotein Lp(a)
