Apollo Health's NAC 500 is packed with N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), an amino acid essential for producing the antioxidant glutathione.
NAC 500 is packed with N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), an amino acid that the body requires in order to produce an antioxidant chemical compound known as glutathione. In addition to helping the body respond to oxidative stress, NAC has also been recognized for its ability to support healthy cardiovascular, respiratory and immune function. This versatile amino acid could further support optimal whole body health by promoting healthy muscle, gastrointestinal (GI), liver and cognitive function as well. Supporting the production of glutathione is probably the most well known function of NAC, because the body simply cannot produce glutathione and benefit from its strong antioxidant properties without NAC. With the strong antioxidant properties of glutathione, the body can better respond to free body radicals. These unstable atoms are constantly in chaos, seeking out other molecules and atoms with which to bond.
This constant state of instability can lead to the chaotic conditions that can lead to both oxidative stress and damage. Over time, oxidative stress and damage can lead to inflammation and a variety of other conditions and symptoms that include:
