N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC)

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) is a stable form of cysteine. NAC is used by the liver and the lymphocytes to detoxify chemicals and other poisons. It is a powerful detoxifier of alcohol, tobacco smoke and environmental pollutants. Taking supplemental NAC can boost the levels of protective enzymes in the body, thus slowing some of the cellular damage that is characteristic of aging.
