N-acetyl cysteine: let your body breathe easily!

NAC is a form of the amino acid cysteine, which is especially well utilisable for the body. It is a bioactive antioxidant promoting the formation of reduced glutathione. Glutathione supports the liver and protects the cells against free radicals, which activates the body’s natural defence system. NAC is able to counteract the formation of viscous mucus or liquefies and loosens it.

What can antioxidants do for your body?

Antioxidants are compounds, which are able to protect body cells against the harmful effects of free radicals. Free radicals develop during every metabolic process (for example the energy metabolism or respiration) and by means of external influences such as smoking, environmental toxins or high ozone levels. When the number of free radicals gets out of control, it leads to oxidative stress. A balanced state between oxidants and antioxidant is worth striving for in any case.

Advantages of N-acetyl cysteine

Consuming NAC capsules increases the glutathione level easily and safely. It neutralises environmental toxins and harmful substances such as heavy metals, which can accumulate in the liver and in the kidneys. NAC promotes a healthy glutathione level, which supports an easy excretion of toxins and harmful substances and protects the cells and tissues.
