THORNE - NAC Capsules

Support your body's mental and physical defenses with Thorne NAC (N-Acetylcysteine). This essential supplement provides a readily absorbable form of cysteine, a key amino acid needed for the synthesis of glutathione, a critical antioxidant that protects cells from damage. NAC supports healthy liver function by aiding in detoxification processes. It also promotes respiratory health by helping to break down mucus. Thorne's NAC is a high-quality formula designed for optimal absorption and efficacy.

• Glutathione Production: NAC is essential for the production of glutathione, often referred to as the "master antioxidant." Glutathione helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that contribute to aging and various diseases.
• Reduces Oxidative Stress: By increasing glutathione levels, NAC helps reduce oxidative stress, an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body.
• Detoxification: NAC supports liver function by aiding in detoxification processes. It helps the liver process and eliminate toxins.
• Acetaminophen Overdose: In medical settings, NAC is a standard treatment for acetaminophen (Tylenol) overdose, as it helps prevent liver damage.
• Liver Diseases: Some studies suggest that NAC may be beneficial for individuals with certain liver conditions, such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
• Mucolytic Effects: NAC can help break down mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and clear the lungs. This can be beneficial for individuals with conditions like chronic bronchitis, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), and cystic fibrosis.
• Reduces Inflammation: NAC's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce inflammation in the airways, further supporting respiratory health.
• Neuroprotection: Some research suggests that NAC may have neuroprotective effects, potentially benefiting conditions like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
• Mental Health: NAC has shown promise in studies for supporting individuals with certain mental health conditions, such as depression, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
• Immune Support: By supporting glutathione production, NAC may contribute to a healthy immune system.
• Fertility: Some studies suggest that NAC may improve fertility in both men and women.
• Blood Sugar Regulation: There is some evidence that NAC may help improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control.
