"There is a growing body of literature on the potential benefits of NAC in a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders."

Protects Neurons From Free Radicals & Oxidative Stress*

“The mechanisms of action of NAC overlap with the pathophysiology of a diverse range of neuropsychiatric disorders, including autism, addiction, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases”*

​

HOW DOES IT WORK?

NAC has both direct and indirect effects upon the

NMDA-R that benefit function.

NAC Increases Glutathione - The body's vital Master Antioxidant found in virtually every human cell. 

NAC regulates Glutamate in the synapse between neurons to improve NMDA-R function and prevent excitotoxicity. 

NAC provides strong protection from environmental toxins.

Glutathione depletion is a serious problem that impairs detoxification and increases

inflammation

 

NAC enhances cellular Glutathione and 

protects neurons.​

“NAC has been in use for over 30 years as an antidote for Tylenol overdose, treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a renal protectant for nephropathy and the management of HIV. A groundswell of recent evidence suggests benefits in multiple neuropsychiatric disorders.”

​

NAC is a precursor for Glutathione, an essential amino acid

naturally found in the human body.

NAC appears to be a promising therapeutic target and provides a window of treatment opportunity in a field where current treatments are limited or have remained suboptimal.
