Product Description
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a sulfur-containing amino acid, is the precursor of the amino acids L-cysteine and glutathione. As a sulfur source, NAC may encourage glutathione production (an important antioxidant produced in the body), synthesis, and activity, enhance liver detoxification, and is a powerful molecule capable of scavenging free radicals.
NAC helps maintain good pulmonary health due to its mucolytic activity. NAC's sulfur cleaves bonds in mucoproteins, causing mucus to be subsequently broken into smaller, less viscous pieces. NAC has been noted to decrease the viscoelasticity of nasal mucus and increase the clearance of mucus by the cilia by thinning of secretions, thus helping maintain good pulmonary health.
Suggested Usage
Take 1 capsule two to three times daily or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.
