NAC is a derivative of cysteine, a sulphur amino acid that the body makes naturally. It is a building block for glutathione, a tripeptide formed from glycine, L-glutamic acid and L-cysteine that the body produces itself. Taking glutathione or plain L-cysteine directly is less practical, as cysteine is unstable, which is one reason NAC is so widely used in supplements. NAC is not found naturally in food, so a supplement is the usual way to include it, and physically active people often add it to their routine.
Available in a 200g pack.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
