Product Review
N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine (NAC) is a derivative of the dietary amino acid l-cysteine. NAC has a high affinity for lung tissue, which it supports through mucolytic and antioxidant action. By disrupting disulfide bonds, NAC thins mucus. It is a powerful free radical scavenger and thus supports the body's natural defense system. NAC supports tissue levels of glutathione, a key component of the antioxidant defense system.*
- ANTIOXIDANT SUPPORT: NAC provides powerful nutritional support to cells as an antioxidant, specifically supporting healthy lung functioning through its mucolytic capability.*
- FREE RADICAL SCAVENGER: NAC is a free radical scavenger and thus supports epithelial cell health and healthy cilia activity in the respiratory tract.*
- ANTIOXIDANT PRECURSOR: NAC is also a precursor to the antioxidant glutathione, and supplemental NAC increases tissue levels of glutathione.*
