Pro NAC 1200 Sustained Release

Description

Name NaturesPlus, Pro NAC 1200, Sustained Release, 60 Tablets

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is known for its powerful antioxidant properties, being described as “the epitome of an antioxidant” in some studies.

Anti oxidant Activity

• NAC provides the building block cysteine for the production of glutathione (GSH), the master antioxidant in the body, which helps maintain redox balance in the mitochondria. Unlike taking cysteine directly, NAC is considered safer and more effective in boosting glutathione levels, especially in cases like acetaminophen poisoning.
• Studies have shown that NAC supplementation may raise glutathione levels in the brains of individuals with ME/CFS/SEID, highlighting its potential benefits

NAC in Mitochondria

NAC is commonly known as an antioxidant, but it also has properties that enhance mitochondria.

• In the mitochondria, NAC is converted into hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which is then oxidized to create sulfur species.
• These sulfur species are responsible for NAC’s antioxidant and protective features.
• The hydrogen donors produced during this process can also stimulate ATP production and enhance a cell’s “mitochondrial bioenergetics.”

This, combined with the fact that NAC is generally considered safe and effective when taken in doses of 600mg to 1800mg per day, makes it a suitable supplement for patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
