NAC

(N-Acetyl-Cysteine)

NAC (N Acetyl Cysteine)The primary use for NAC is as a mucus reducing agent. Mucus strands are broken up so that the viscosity and congestion associated with excess mucus and drainage from the nose and sinuses decreases.

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is a specialized form of the amino acid, cysteine, that modulates the production of and is precursor to glutathione. In turn, glutathionine helps protect the body against natural and man-made oxidants. Glutathionine is also an antitoxin and a neurotransmitter.

NAC was first produced 30 years ago by Mead Johnson. It was patented in 1965 for use in aerosol form for the treatment of excess mucus.
