It occurs in protein-rich foods – pulses, eggs, nuts and oats – but as a free amino acid it is not very stable and oxidises easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eN-Acetyl-L-Cysteine\u003c\/strong\u003e is the acetylated, \u003cstrong\u003econsiderably more stable variant\u003c\/strong\u003e. The body cleaves off the acetyl group and obtains cysteine from it. \u003cstrong\u003eCysteine\u003c\/strong\u003e, in turn, is one of the three amino acids from which the body forms \u003cstrong\u003eglutathione\u003c\/strong\u003e – alongside glutamic acid and glycine. Of the three, cysteine is the one most likely to be limiting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy not glutathione directly?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn obvious question. Glutathione is a tripeptide and is largely broken down into its building blocks in the digestive tract before it is absorbed. \u003cstrong\u003eThis is why most formulations start with the building block rather than the finished molecule.\u003c\/strong\u003e NAC is the most commonly used route in practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e600 mg per capsule – the full daily serving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne capsule provides \u003cstrong\u003e600 mg of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is also the recommended daily dose, so no conversion is required. 120 capsules correspond to \u003cstrong\u003e120 daily servings\u003c\/strong\u003e – four months from one bottle, equivalent to \u003cstrong\u003e12 cents per day\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVegan capsule shell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsule shell is entirely plant-based and contains no animal-derived ingredients. It was also chosen to protect the contents well against oxygen – with a sulphur-containing amino acid that oxidises in air, this is not a cosmetic detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe sulphur smell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNAC smells of sulphur – sometimes more noticeable and sometimes less, depending on the batch. This is normal and lies in the nature of the substance: cysteine contains a thiol group, and it smells. Odour-neutral NAC does not exist unless it has been coated or flavoured. We do neither.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended intake\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake 1 capsule daily, swallowed whole with sufficient water, preferably at breakfast or lunchtime. Many people take NAC at some distance from protein-rich meals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eN-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, bulking agent: microcrystalline cellulose, glazing agent: Pullulan (plant-based capsule shell), anti-caking agent: magnesium salts of fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot suitable for children or adolescents.
