What is NAC?
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), also known as Acetylcysteine is a dietary supplement.
NAC is considered semi-essential because your body can produce it from other amino acids, namely methionine and serine. It becomes essential only when dietary intake of methionine and serine is low.
Cysteine is found in most high protein foods, such as chicken, turkey, yogurt, cheese, eggs, sunflower seeds, and legumes.
Acetylcysteine was initially patented in 1960 and came into medical use in 1968.
How does NAC work?
From animal studies NAC is valued primarily for its role in antioxidant production. NAC is necessary to make and replenish glutathione, which is essential for immune health and for fighting cellular damage. It may even contribute to longevity.
Its antioxidant properties can be beneficial for helping with infertility, heart disease and some mental health conditions.
NAC can also help with the body’s detoxification process. Thanks to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, it can also be used to prevent or reduce kidney and liver damage.
NAC can relieve symptoms of respiratory conditions by acting as an expectorant, loosening mucus in your air passageways.
Animal studies have shown that NAC may stabilize blood sugar by decreasing inflammation in fat cells and thereby improve insulin resistance.
