NAC as a Glutathione Precursor
Share
NAC, short for N-acetyl-L-cysteine, is one of the best-studied ways to support glutathione production. Antioxidant reserves are under demand every day.
What the review covered
A 2021 review in Antioxidants gathered a large body of clinical and mechanistic research on NAC's impacts on human health, including its well-known role as a precursor the body uses to make glutathione.
Why it matters for Livana
Livana includes NAC alongside L-glutathione. That covers two things at once: direct glutathione support, and a precursor the body can use for ongoing production.
