Versatile and potent, N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is your secret weapon for health optimization. Whether it’s boosting liver function, easing breathing, or supporting mental well-being, NAC packs a powerful punch for overall health.
What is N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC)?
N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is an amino acid derivative known for its anti-oxidative properties. NAC is a precursor to glutathione, one of the body’s most potent antioxidants. As a dietary supplement, NAC has been researched for its potential role in supporting respiratory health, aiding in detoxification processes, and promoting overall cellular protection against oxidative stress. Additionally, its potential neuroprotective and mood-regulating attributes are topics of interest within the scientific community. For individuals looking to bolster their antioxidant defenses and support their overall well-being, NAC presents an intriguing option.

Watch Dr. Larson Discuss NAC Benefits
That’s where NAC comes in. NAC is a precursor to glutathione, meaning that our bodies use it to produce glutathione. When you take NAC, it’s well absorbed by your body and then used to make glutathione within your cells. In essence, it helps boost your body’s natural production of glutathione, making it a more effective way to increase your glutathione levels compared to taking glutathione directly.
In addition, NAC has a range of other potential benefits that go beyond boosting glutathione levels, making it a multifaceted supplement for overall health.
The Health Benefits of Glutathione
Glutathione production in the body is dependent on cysteine and that is why N-acetyl-l-cysteine or ‘NAC’ is important to take as a supplement.
Glutathione occurs naturally in cells and is a cofactor in dozens of enzymatic reactions involved in detoxification.* As an antioxidant, glutathione directly quenches several reactive oxygen species (free radicals).* The body’s benefits from maintaining a normal level of glutathione include support for liver function, pulmonary function, immune function, bowel health, carbohydrate metabolism, cardiovascular health, cognitive health, and eye health.*
Glutathione is the most abundant anti-oxidant. Since training and competition create more oxidative stress and damage, athletes have a higher need for antioxidants. Exercise longer than 60-90 minutes significantly decreases glutathione levels in the blood, so supplementing is beneficial for endurance and ultra endurance events.
The liver is the body’s largest reservoir for glutathione. A potent endogenous antioxidant, glutathione is essential for the liver’s phase I and phase II detoxification.* However, negative lifestyle issues and adverse conditions that affect liver health can result in a decreased amount of glutathione in the liver.
Maintaining an optimal level of glutathione appears to be important for supporting cognitive function, especially during aging.* The normal process of aging is associated with a decrease in glutathione activity, which can result in increased oxidative activity.* Less than an optimum level of glutathione is observed in individuals experiencing a decline in cognitive function.* Conversely, individuals who live to 100 tend to have higher glutathione activity.*
Adults take 1 to 3 capsules daily, with our without food or as directed by your health care provider.
Restore your detoxification pathways, immune system and so much more with NAC.
