Protect your liver, stop free radicals,  slow down the aging process, clear your lungs and even prevent hangovers!

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is so powerful that it is even used in conventional medicine for the treatment of a myriad of conditions.  It is used to treat paracetamol overdose,[1] many lung diseases,[2,3,4,5] and as a protective agent for the kidneys in contrast X-rays.[6,7,8] It has also been shown to reduce the symptoms of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia[9,10];  And if that wasn’t enough, It has even been recommended by New Scientist[11] (In their bumper Alcohol special edition!) for preventing hangovers, and I can tell you from extensive experience that it certainly works!

Boost the most abundant antioxidant in your body with a cost effective and little known wonder supplement!

We’ve all heard of the health benefits of antioxidants in combating the damaging effects of free radicals.  The reason why NAC is so powerful is that it rapidly and significantly boosts the bodies’ levels of the most abundant cellular antioxidant in the body, glutathione, and there is plenty of evidence to back this up.  Some of the more interesting research was done by the US army attempting to protect against mustard gas using NAC.[12]

Its mode of action is backed up by science and supported by hard, clinical evidence.

Paracetamol toxicity is caused by the rapid depletion of glutathione in the liver.  Once this is gone, the liver can no longer fight off the damaging effects of the toxic by-products from overdose and liver cells are damaged and die.[1]  It’s no surprise then that this is why NAC is administered as the antidote to paracetamol poisoning.  This is about as strong an endorsement of NAC’s ability to raise levels of glutathione in the body as you could get!

Glutathione is essential for life, it is the most abundant natural antioxidant in the body!

It is well known that glutathione is essential for life, genetically engineered mice with livers that are unable to synthesise it die within a month of birth.[13]  Glutathione is the bodies’ front line antioxidant.  You can learn more about this wonder molecule here.

DON’T BUY INFERIOR SUPPLEMENTS!

Many use so called inferior “food grade” ingredients.  

If you choose to buy any dietary supplement, make sure you pick a manufacturer that publishes the purity of their ingredients.  Nearly all supplement companies do not do this and there is a reason why. Since dietary supplements are classed as food, the ingredients used only have to be “food grade”. These can be loaded with impurities left over from the manufacturing process.  With the massive explosion in supplements over the last decade, the market is getting larger and larger.  Many ingredients are sourced cheaply from china and are of poor purity.  Since I take many supplements myself, I like to know what I am putting into my body, and I take great care to ensure the purity of any dietary supplement that I choose to take.
