About this product

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is a stable, bioavailable form of the amino acid cysteine and the most-studied precursor to glutathione, the body's master antioxidant. By supporting glutathione production, NAC plays a central role in liver detoxification, lung mucus regulation, and protection against oxidative stress. With decades of clinical safety data, it is used by emergency departments to treat acetaminophen overdose. Daily supplementation may support respiratory health during cold and flu season, reduce oxidative damage from intense exercise, and help the liver process alcohol or environmental toxins. Most adults take 600-1,200 mg per day, ideally on an empty stomach.

Precursor to glutathione, the body's master antioxidant. Supports liver detox, lung function, and recovery from oxidative stress.
