Life Extension N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, 600mg, 60 capsules

$10.50

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (AKA NAC) is an easily-absorbed nutrient which supports bronchial, respiratory, immune, and liver health. NAC is also a chemical precursor to glutathione, a powerful antioxidant which protects cells from free radical damage. NAC also defends against insults from foreign compounds at the cellular level and protects vulnerable cells from oxidative stress.

In addition, every household where acetaminophen (e.g. TylenolR) is present should also have N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine handy. Why? Because acetaminophen is hepatotoxic (liver toxic), and in cases of acetaminophen overdose (which is potentially fatal), NAC is the treatment of choice to minimize the liver damage caused by the acetaminophen metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine. We at Nature’s Complement do not use acetaminophen often, but whenever we do, we also supplement with NAC to optimize glutathione levels in the liver to minimize the risk of liver harm.
