NAC 200 mg (500 mg) — N-Acetylcysteine Glutathione Precursor (120 Tablets)
NAC (N-Acetylcysteine) 200/500 mg provides the premier direct precursor to glutathione — the body's master antioxidant and central detoxification molecule.* N-acetylcysteine replenishes cysteine availability, the rate-limiting substrate for glutathione synthesis in every cell.* Beyond glutathione production, NAC has potent mucolytic (mucus-thinning) properties, direct antioxidant activity, and has been studied extensively for liver protection, respiratory health, and neurological support.*
Key Benefits
- Direct precursor to glutathione — the body's most important antioxidant and detox molecule*
- Replenishes cysteine, the rate-limiting step in glutathione synthesis*
- Mucolytic action — thins and breaks down mucus for respiratory health*
- Liver-protective — used clinically for acetaminophen overdose and liver conditions*
- Supports detoxification pathways and heavy metal chelation through glutathione*
Who Is This For?
NAC is foundational for anyone with chronic oxidative stress, liver conditions, respiratory disorders (COPD, chronic bronchitis, asthma), heavy metal or mold exposure, inflammatory conditions, and those on protocols for Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, or neurological health. Recommended by Michelle Tonkin ND as a core detox and antioxidant supplement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should I take NAC vs. glutathione directly?
A: Both are effective. NAC is more economical and allows the body to regulate glutathione production naturally. Liposomal glutathione may be preferable for those who need more direct and rapid glutathione support.
Q: Does NAC help with brain fog?
A: Yes — glutathione deficiency is linked to neurological oxidative stress and cognitive dysfunction. NAC supplementation supports brain glutathione and may improve clarity and cognitive function.*
Q: Is NAC safe during pregnancy?
A: Consult your healthcare provider before taking NAC during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
