NAC has been extensively researched for
its antioxidant properties, particularly in its
potential to neutralize the chemical by-products
of smoking and other environmental toxins.
It is easily converted to both extracellular
and intracellular glutathione, perhaps the most
important antioxidant in the body. Recently,
NAC has been found to enhance mitochondrial
function and researchers are exploring it
properties as an immune system booster. Its stability and
long half-life in the body make it an economical and powerful
antioxidant.
