N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC)
LAST UPDATED JULY 05, 2026
N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine is a stabilized form of the amino acid L-cysteine — the rate-limiting building block your body uses to make glutathione, its master antioxidant.
Why the acetyl form
Plain cysteine is unstable and poorly absorbed. The acetyl group makes NAC stable and bioavailable, so it can reliably reach cells and support glutathione production.*
Why we chose it
We use pharmaceutical-grade NAC tested for identity and purity, at a clinically relevant dose — no proprietary blend hiding the amount.*
Where you'll find it
In NAC (CL-501).
