Special Import - NOW Foods NAC 1000 mg - 60 Tablets

Description:

NOW Foods NAC 1000 mg is a high‑potency dietary supplement providing n-acetyl cysteine (nac), a stable form of the amino acid l-cysteine. NAC is widely used to support antioxidant defenses, glutathione production, liver detoxification, respiratory health, and overall immune function. This product is classified as a supplement, not a medication, and is intended for adults seeking targeted antioxidant and liver support as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Indications:

• Supports antioxidant defenses by helping replenish intracellular glutathione levels.
• Supports normal liver function and detoxification processes.
• Helps maintain healthy respiratory function and mucus clearance.
• Supports immune system health and cellular protection from oxidative stress.
• May be used as adjunct support in individuals exposed to environmental toxins, pollution, or oxidative stress (under medical supervision).

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• n-acetyl cysteine (nac) – 1000 mg per tablet.
• Other ingredients (excipients, coating agents, etc.): exact composition not specified by the available information. Full inactive ingredient list is unavailable.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Adults: Common supplemental dose is 1 tablet (1000 mg) 1–2 times daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Do not exceed the recommended dose unless advised by your doctor.
• Take with a full glass of water. NAC is often taken with food to minimize potential gastrointestinal discomfort; follow your healthcare provider’s instructions.
• Swallow tablets whole; do not crush or chew unless your healthcare provider advises otherwise.
• Duration of use should be individualized based on health goals and medical advice. Long‑term use should be monitored by a healthcare professional.
• Not recommended for children unless specifically prescribed and supervised by a physician.

• Supports healthy liver function and assists natural detoxification pathways, especially in individuals exposed to environmental toxins and oxidative stress.
• Helps maintain respiratory health by supporting normal mucus viscosity and airway clearance.
• Supports immune system function and helps protect cells from free radical damage.
