Description
Nutricology, N-Acetyl Glucosamine, 90 Vegetarian Capsules
N-Acetylglucosamine, often abbreviated as NAG, is a simple sugar that plays a crucial role in a variety of biological processes. A polysaccharide made up of glucosamine and acetic acid, N-acetyl D-glucosamine is a key constituent of the hyaluronic acid that lubricates joint surfaces, but its benefits go beyond joint health.
NAG Benefits:
Reduces Neuroinflammation: NAG supplementation might help reduce the neuroinflammatory processes believed to be part of CFS/ME/SEID pathology by acting on the pathways that mediate inflammation in the nervous system.
Neurotransmitter Function: NAG could help in rebalancing neurotransmitter activity, which is often disrupted in CFS. This could lead to improvements in cognitive function and a reduction in fatigue.
Neurological Function Enhancement: NAG can help restore neurological function and reduce disability.
Antiviral Activity: NAG has been connected to reduced hospital stays for patients with Covid, as it is believed to have the ability to stop enveloped viruses from multiplying.
Digestive health: There is some evidence to suggest that it can help reinforce the gut barrier, possibly reducing gastrointestinal symptoms.
Joint Health: By supporting cartilage synthesis and repair, NAG can help improve joint function and alleviate symptoms associated with joint distress such as from osteoarthritis.
Skin Health: NAG contributes to the formation of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is vital for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. This can lead to reduced wrinkles and improved skin texture.
Safety and Tolerability: Unlike many other treatments that have significant side effects, NAG is considered safe and well-tolerated, making it a potentially valuable adjunct therapy for individuals suffering from CFS/ME/SEID.
This product is N-Acetyl Glucosamine (NAG) from vegan source. Although research suggests that glucosamine sulfate is better absorbed than NAG, individuals sensitive to sulfur may tolerate NAG better.
