NAC (N-Acetylcysteine)

Highlights

• 1200 mg NAC per serving (2 capsules)
• 90 vegetarian capsules • 45 servings
• Flexible label use: 1–2 capsules, 1–2 times daily with meals
• Often used for glutathione support, antioxidant defense, and seasonal respiratory support‡
• Simple single-ingredient active formula
• Vegetarian capsule format for easy daily use

Who it’s for

• People who want daily glutathione and antioxidant support‡
• Those looking for healthy mucus balance during seasonal or travel stress‡
• Adults who want a simple tool for liver detox pathway support‡
• Anyone who prefers a single-ingredient NAC formula instead of a large blend

Who should be cautious

• Pregnant or nursing, under 18: use only with clinician guidance
• If you take prescription medications or have a medical condition, check with your clinician first
• If you have asthma or sensitive airways, use with extra caution and practitioner guidance
• If NAC ever causes stomach upset, take it with meals and start at the low end

What it is

NAC, short for N-acetylcysteine, is a stable form of the amino acid cysteine. It’s commonly used to support the body’s antioxidant defenses because it helps provide the building blocks needed to make glutathione, one of the body’s key internal antioxidants.‡

It’s also well known for supporting healthy mucus viscosity, which is why many people use it when they want respiratory and seasonal wellness support.‡

Highlights

• Broad-spectrum blend: vitamins C + E + selenium + ALA + NAC + polyphenols + eye carotenoids‡
• Eye carotenoids included: lutein + zeaxanthin + astaxanthin‡
• 60 capsules total • label serving 2/day (30-day supply)
• Built for everyday oxidative demand and environmental stressors‡

Who it’s for

• People who want broad antioxidant coverage during stress, travel, heavy training, or high-demand seasons‡
• Anyone who wants antioxidant support that includes eye carotenoids (lutein/zeaxanthin/astaxanthin)‡
• Adults who prefer a multi-pathway approach vs single-ingredient antioxidants‡

Who should be cautious

• Pregnant/nursing or under 18: clinician guidance recommended (standard supplement caution)
• If you use medications or manage a condition: confirm fit with your clinician (standard)
• If you’re already stacking multiple antioxidant products: avoid “mega stacks” unless guided

Why it matters

Modern life can drive oxidative stress from multiple angles: poor sleep, intense training, travel, alcohol, processed foods, and high stress. When antioxidant demand rises, glutathione-related pathways can get stretched. NAC helps support the body’s ability to keep those defenses steadier.‡

Many people choose NAC because it supports more than one area at once:

• Antioxidant and glutathione support‡
• Healthy mucus balance‡
• Immune function‡
• Liver detox pathway support‡
• Whole-body resilience during stress‡

How it works

Glutathione building-block support
NAC provides cysteine, which the body uses as a key raw material to help make glutathione and maintain antioxidant capacity.‡

Healthy mucus balance
NAC is widely used to support normal mucus viscosity, helping mucus stay thinner and easier to clear.‡

Detox and inflammatory balance support
By helping maintain glutathione and antioxidant defenses, NAC supports liver detox pathways and a balanced response to everyday oxidative stress.‡
