N-acetyl-L-cysteine is cysteine with an acetyl group attached, a small change that makes it more stable as a supplement. Cysteine is one of the three building blocks the body uses to make glutathione, alongside glutamate and glycine. Many people use NAC as a standalone product so they can control their intake precisely, and it pairs easily with other supplements in a daily routine. The capsules are easy to take with water.
