The primary use for N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is as a mucus reducing agent.
NAC breaks up and reduces mucus so there''s less viscosity and congestion that occurs with nasal and sinus drainage (post nasal drip).
NAC is a specialized form of the amino acid cysteine, that modulates the production of and is precursor to glutathione, the body''s Major cellular antioxidant.
Glutathione helps protect the body against natural and man-made oxidants. Glutathione is also an antitoxin and a neurotransmitter.
NAC was first produced 30 years ago by Mead Johnson. It was patented in 1965 for use in aerosol form for the treatment of excess mucus.
