NAC is the abbreviation for N-Acetyl-Cysteine, the stable, acetylated form of the amino acid L-cysteine. It comes in a vegetarian capsule, one hundred pieces in a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is NAC\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNAC stands for N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine. It is a form of the amino acid cysteine, where an acetyl group is attached to the molecule. Cysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid, and that sulfur immediately explains why NAC has a distinctive odor (see the frequently asked questions). The NAC in this product is made via a fermentation process using non-animal raw materials. It is therefore a plant-derived substance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNAC, cysteine and glutathione\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy is cysteine in particular such a well-known amino acid? The body uses cysteine as one of the building blocks to produce glutathione, a small sulfur-containing molecule that the body produces itself. NAC is often mentioned in the same breath as glutathione because it provides the acetylated form of that same building block. This is biochemistry: a description of where the molecule belongs in the body, not a promise about what it does for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e600 mg per capsule, plant-based packaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach capsule contains 600 mg of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, a commonly used dosage. You take one capsule daily with water. The capsule is made from plant-based cellulose instead of gelatin, so this product fits into a vegan and vegetarian diet. By the way, don't be surprised by the smell: due to the sulfur in cysteine, NAC smells a bit like sulfur or egg. That's normal and says nothing about the quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: NAC in its pure form, 600 mg N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine per capsule, one hundred pieces in plant-based packaging. A straightforward choice for those who want to have this well-known form of cysteine at home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Swanson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46487624778066,"sku":"Swanson-110","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/NACLuto.jpg?v=1762787777","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/nac-n-acetyl-l-cysteine-600mg-100-capsules-swanson","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
