N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is a supplement form of cysteine, a semi-essential amino acid that our bodies produce from other amino acids. Cysteine is found in most high-protein foods like yogurt, turkey, chicken, eggs, and legumes. Adequate levels of cysteine and NAC play an important role in our health. That role includes restocking the glutathione in our bodies, a powerful antioxidant which aids in neutralizing free radicals that may harm cells and tissue. Offering custom NAC supplements can lead your customers to…
An Improved Respiratory System
N-Acetyl Cysteine has the ability to relieve symptoms of respiratory conditions by loosening mucus in air passageways and has been shown to reduce inflammation in bronchial tubes and lung tissue. NAC can therefore help those with chronic bronchitis and stable COPD, a group of lung diseases that causes lung deterioration.
Prevent Heart Disease
Nitric oxide dilates veins and betters blood flow, so it is a good thing NAC is able to increase the production of nitric oxide, possibly reducing the risk of heart disease. NAC can therefore not only lower oxidative damage to tissue in our heart, but expedite blood transit back to our heart, all lowering the risk of a heart attack and heart disease. Remember that heart disease is the #1 killer condition in America. So, if your private label business is all about promoting healthier lifestyle choices, then manufacturing a quality N-Acetyl Cysteine capsule, tablet, or powder with an award-winning vitamin manufacturing and supplement service provider could be the stepping stone your customers need.
Better Brain Function
Animal studies indicate that NAC can slow the loss of cognitive ability in people with Alzheimer’s. Cysteine supplements may also improve dopamine function and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, including tremors. While more human studies must be conducted for further conclusions, much of what NAC has to offer resides in its restoration of glutathione and regulation of glutamate.
Fertility
Did you know that around 15% of all couples trying to conceive are affected by infertility? In nearly half of these cases, male infertility is the main contributing factor (healthline). Oxidative stress is caused be insufficient antioxidant levels, which do not only protect against free radicals, but free radicals in the reproductive system. In some instances, NAC has improved male fertility, since it boosted antioxidant levels. The story is similar when it comes to female fertility. NAC has the potential to improve fertility in women who have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) by inducing or augmenting the ovulation cycle.
Stabilized Blood Sugar Levels
With obesity or high blood sugar levels, chances are likely that damage will be done to insulin receptors, leading to type 2 diabetes. As a result of animal studies, there is some evidence pointing to NAC’s agency in decreasing fat cell inflammation, thereby ameliorating insulin resistance. When insulin receptors are intact and functioning properly, they are able to remove sugar from the blood, which shows promising effects for humans.
