N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC)

Benefits at a Glance: 

  • Precursor to glutathione, the body's master antioxidant
  • Supports detoxification and drainage pathways
  • Increases healthy bile production
  • Helps reduce on-going inflammation
  • Acts as an antioxidant

NAC, or N-Acetyl Cysteine, is a powerful amino acid derivative that plays a crucial role in supporting the body's detoxification processes, particularly in the liver. As the precursor to glutathione, NAC helps boost the production of this vital antioxidant, which is crucial for neutralizing toxins and protecting cells from damage. 

In daily life, NAC's detox-supportive benefits can help mitigate the negative impact of environmental toxins, alcohol, processed foods, high-stress, a lack of sleep and/or medications that tax the liver – and improve fatigue, brain fog, immunity, skin issues, and more. 

NAC's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties extend far beyond liver health and offer potential benefits for respiratory health and immune function.This makes it an ideal supplement to have in your routine (or taken in a complex) for year-round well-being.

Why It’s Included

NAC's role as a glutathione precursor makes it an essential component in any comprehensive liver support formula, especially when paired with ingredients like TUDCA and milk thistle – which also support liver detox and bile flow.

NAC and TUDCA also work synergistically to open the body’s drainage pathways, break down and eliminate toxins, and calm on-going inflammation that results from the modern-day lifestyle.
