After consumption and entry into the body, NAC is converted primarily into cysteine. However, in contrast to cysteine itself, NAC penetrates the tissue better and saturates it better with cysteine due to its structural characteristics. For example, cysteine is necessary for the production of glutathione and increases the concentration of this compound in our tissues, while glutathione is an essential component of the body's antioxidant system, which protects tissues from the destructive activity of free oxygen radicals. And it is precisely the ability to stimulate glutathione synthesis in tissue that shows the advantage of NAC over ordinary cysteine. Hints: Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Food supplements must not be used as a substitute for a varied diet. Do not use in cas.
