NAC 500 by AST Sports Science will support muscle growth, increase fat metabolism and enhance your ability to recover and fight infections. The reason NAC is such a valuable supplement to athletes is that it is a quality supply of cysteine, and this amino acid has emerged from research as the critical "missing piece" in the jigsaw puzzle of muscle growth.
AST Sports Science NAC 500:
- Increase lean muscle growth
- Enhance muscle strength
- Enhanced recovery
- Protein synthesis
- Fat metabolism
Cysteine appears to be fundamental component of a complex biochemical reaction that controls protein metabolism. This reaction takes place in the liver but depends upon a constant supply of cysteine in the blood, which is usually provided by muscle. Low cysteine levels weaken this reaction pathway in the liver and this directs muscle metabolism towards protein breakdown and nitrogen loss.
NAC 500 relieves the burden on muscle having to constantly provide critical cysteine to the liver. This keeps muscle tissue intact, allowing muscle growth while also shifting other muscle metabolism pathways towards protein accumulation and preventing muscle loss.
