N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) is a stable form of the non-essential amino acid cysteine. Cysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that acts as a stabilizer for the formation of protein structures. Although NAC possesses its own free radical scavenging activity, its primary function in the body is to supply cysteine necessary for glutathione synthesis and replenishment. This unique formula also contains molybdenum, an essential trace element that functions as a cofactor in many biochemical reactions, and selenium, another trace mineral that supports glutathione production.
Additional Warnings: Warnings: NAC may interact with certain pharmaceutical medications including ACE inhibitors and angina medications such as nitroglycerin and isosorbide. NAC may also interact with activated charcoal. Keep freshness packets in the bottle until it is empty. Keep bottle tightly closed at all times in between usage.
