THE AMAZING BENEFITS OF N-A-C
Over the past 12 years, I have consistently recommended an underestimated and under-utilized natural food supplement called N-A-C (N-Acetyl-Cysteine) to my patients. Even naturopaths rarely suggest it, and the majority of individuals who take natural supplements are unaware of its existence. However, in certain instances, this supplement can be the differentiating factor between life and death.
N-A-C, a derivative of the essential amino acid cysteine, plays a vital role in the production of glutathione (GSH), one of the body’s most crucial antioxidants. Its ability to elevate GSH levels in the bloodstream is responsible for all the benefits associated with N-A-C. This supplement profoundly impacts the immune system, safeguards the liver, facilitates detoxification, and promotes cardiovascular health. Therefore, we all require its anti-inflammatory protection.
N-A-C actively modulates the expression of genes that influence the inflammatory process. By inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, suppressing NF-kappa B, and regulating the COX-2 gene, it effectively prevents inflammation and alleviates pain. These chemical components play a significant role in numerous inflammatory conditions and diseases. In other words, N-A-C possesses anti-inflammatory properties and can effectively attenuate or reverse chronic inflammatory conditions.
Can Help Support Pregnancy Outcomes
Is N-acetyl cysteine safe during pregnancy? Studies have shown no maternal or fetal harmful effects of NAC treatment.
Certain studies have even found that NAC used in combination with vitamin E, or vitamins A and E, and essential fatty acids can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lead to pregnancy rate improvements in those struggling to become and stay pregnant, especially women with PCOS.
This is because it increases levels of the antioxidant glutathione, which positively acts on insulin secretion and reduces insulin resistance, which is believed to be associated with PCOS.
According to an article published in Women’s Health Reviews, NAC works as a therapeutic approach to improve the level of circulating insulin, as well as insulin sensitivity, in PCOS patients with hyperinsulinemia.
NAC also has anti-inflammatory effects that can improve pregnant and birth outcomes among women with infections, who are susceptible to experiencing preterm labours. Doses of about 800mg of NAC daily can be taken orally along with progesterone after week 16 of pregnancy in order to protect against preterm birth recurrence.
Additionally, it can help treat acetaminophen overdose during pregnancy, which is the most common drug overdose reported among pregnant women.
Helps Treat Respiratory Issues by Breaking Up Mucus
NAC has the ability to reduce mucus secretions and phlegm, as well as to reduce coughing, wheezing and trouble breathing. This makes it helpful in treating conditions including chronic bronchitis (defined as the presence of chronic productive coughs for more than three months in two consecutive years), as well as colds and the flu.
In addition, there’s evidence that it can be an adjunct treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (the fourth-leading cause of death in the U.S.) and emphysema.
Protects the Liver and Kidneys
When it comes to promoting detoxification, what is N-acetyl cysteine good for? In addition to protecting the organs from free radical damage, another use is helping control side effects associated with taking doses of certain medications/drugs, especially acetaminophen.
NAC is an effective way to help treat emergency acetaminophen toxicity and acute liver failure.
Has Mood-Lifting/Stabilizing Effects
An imbalance of glutamate is believed to be one contributing factor to mood and cognitive conditions. Because it has an impact on levels of the neurotransmitter glutamate in the brain, NAC for anxiety, depression and other mental health conditions may be a useful complementary treatment.
It’s particularly been shown to have positive therapeutic impacts on psychiatric syndromes that are either characterised by oxidative stress or impulsivity and compulsivity.
According to a Psychology Today article:
There have been many studies of this compound, including neuroimaging studies, and it has been investigated in innumerable disorders — depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, schizophrenia, addiction, eating disorders, Alzheimer’s disease, and addiction.
There’s evidence that NAC seems to help with ruminations (difficult-to-control extreme negative self-thoughts). It can help make these thought patterns less distressing and less likely to evoke serious worry or fear and to trigger depression.
Help Stop Cancer Development
There’s evidence that NAC can defend against cancer by neutralizing free radicals that cause damage to DNA.
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center states that “NAC interferes with tumor invasion, metastasis, and blood vessel growth in lab experiments, however it’s not known how well these effects carry over to humans.”
Clinical studies show there are several ways in which NAC can help defend against certain types of cancer. These include:
- regulating the expression of genes that are involved in oxidative stress and inflammation pathways
- increasing antioxidant status
- reducing production of inflammatory cytokines and proteins
Additionally, it can be used to help cancer patients overcome the adverse effects associated with certain drugs and treatments.
Defends Against Metabolic Disorders
As mentioned above, NAC improves insulin sensitivity and can help those who are susceptible to developing metabolic disorders.
