NAC-600

NAC-600 contains pharmaceutical-grade N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) to support glutathione synthesis in the body. Glutathione is a key tripeptide that plays important antioxidant roles in humans. NAC is an acetylated form of the amino acid L-cysteine, which is the limiting factor in glutathione production, as it is rarely found in foods.*

Since glutathione is one of the body’s major endogenous antioxidants and is also involved in many metabolic reactions, low levels of this peptide are associated with high levels of oxidative stress and impairments in nearly every system in the body. Supplementation with NAC helps maintain adequate glutathione concentrations in the body and may support multiple aspects of health and well-being.*

Much of the L-cysteine ingested through diet and supplementation is thought to be lost to first-pass metabolism. This is where NAC becomes relevant, as its structural differences make it more resistant to metabolism. As a result, more L-cysteine can be distributed to the body (resulting in increased glutathione production).

Moreover, NAC supplementation increases glutathione concentrations in the body more than supplementing with glutathione alone, since glutathione is rapidly broken down by the intestines. As alluded to earlier, glutathione serves as a crucial antioxidant throughout the body by neutralizing free radicals and reactive oxygen species. It has also been shown that glutathione regulates the nitric oxide cycle, which is critical for proper blood flow and vascular function.*

Lastly, glutathione is involved in numerous metabolic reactions that affect all organ systems, particularly the nervous, immune, and gastrointestinal systems. Thus, NAC-600 acts to support nominal glutathione concentrations in the body and many critical cellular functions.*

• Supports metabolic reactions in body systems, especially the immune, nervous, respiratory, and gastrointestinal systems
  
• Acts as an antioxidant in the body to regulate oxidative stress
  
• Supports nitric oxide production and vascular function
