NAC is an acetylated version of the amino acid L-cysteine, which is the limiting factor in glutathione production in the body\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFunctions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlutathione is one of the body's major endogenous antioxidants and is involved in many metabolic reactions. Low levels of glutathione are associated with high levels of oxidative stress and impairments in nearly every system in the body.1 It is suggested that supplementation with NAC, which acts to maintain proper concentrations of glutathione in the body, can help support multiple factors of health and well- being.2 Much of the L-cysteine ingested through diet and supplementation is thought to be lost to first-pass metabolism. This is where NAC comes into play, as its structural difference makes it more resistant to metabolism. This will permit more L-cysteine to be distributed to the body resulting in increased glutathione production.3 It is thought that NAC supplementation increases glutathione concentrations in the body more than supplementing with glutathione alone since glutathione is rapidly broken down by the intestines. Once again, glutathione serves as a crucial antioxidant throughout the body by neutralizing free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Glutathione also plays a role in regulating the nitric oxide cycle, which is critical for proper blood flow and vascular function. Glutathione is involved in a multitude of metabolic reactions affecting every system in the body, especially the nervous system, immune system and gastrointestinal system. Thus, N-acetyl-cysteine supplementation acts to support nominal glutathione concentrations in many critical cellular functions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIndications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eN-Acetyl-Cysteine 600 may be a useful nutritional supplement for: • Supporting metabolic reactions in the immune, nervous, respiratory, and gastrointestinal systems • Providing antioxidant protection to help regulate oxidative stress • Supporting nitric oxide production and vascular function To effectively increase both extracellular and intracellular glutathione levels, this product and glutathione may be taken concurrently\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSupplement Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"supplement-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"serving-size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne Vegetarian Capsule Contains\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"supplement-facts-table\" style=\"width:100%; max-width:480px; border-collapse:collapse; margin:12px 0;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px 6px 0;\"\u003eN-acetyl-cysteine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:right; white-space:nowrap; padding:6px 0 6px 16px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e600 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"other-ingredients\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, vegetable magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuggested Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake one capsule daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSide Effects\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaution: If pregnant, nursing, or taking any medication, consult your healthcare practitioner before use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStorage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool, dry place, away from direct light.
