Jarrow NAC Sustain 600mg
(100 Tabs)
Jarrow NAC SUSTAIN™ is in a bilayer Quick Release / Sustained Release format of N-ACETYL-L-CYSTEINE (NAC), a powerful antioxidant amino acid and a precursor to the critical antioxidant glutathione. Glutathione exerts a variety of protective effects, including detoxification and intracellular defense against oxidative stress.
The advanced bilayer technology combines 1/3 Quick Release and 2/3 Sustained Release formats to both immediately raise and to maintain blood levels over a longer period of time. NAC SUSTAIN™ releases in the small intestine over a 4 hour period, compared to the 1.5 hour biological half-life of NAC in the bloodstream.
NAC is the pre-acetylized form of the simple amino acid Cysteine. N-acetyl-L-cysteine is a powerful antioxidant and a premier antitoxin and immune support substance. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, which are produced by normal metabolic activity. When free radicals are left unchecked they cause damage to cells and DNA and are considered by scientists to be a major factor in the aging process.
N-acetyl-L-cysteine has been shown to provide protection against free radicals as well as a broad range of toxic hazards such as: acrolein (found in barbecue and cigarette smoke and auto exhaust), bromobenzene, paraquat (a toxic herbicide), overdoses of acetaminophen, and the side-effects of cyclophosphamide and adrimycin (anti-cancer drugs).
The key to this protection may be the sulfur and sulfhydryl groups contained in N-Acetyl Cysteine and its derivative, glutathione. Both cysteine and methionine are precursors of glutathione, but N-acetyl-L-cysteine is better. L-cysteine loses approximately 85% of its sulfur group (which becomes the active part of glutathione) in the digestion process, while N-Acetyl-L-cysteine, a more stable compound, loses only 15%. This means that N-Acetyl-L-cysteine has almost six times more effective sulfur groups left after digestion.
N-Acetyl-L-cysteine is also a better source of glutathione than taking glutathione itself, because less than half of supplemental glutathione gets out of the digestive system and into the body. This greater efficiency is important since cellular glutathione levels tend to drop 30% to 35% with age.
Supplemental N-acetyl-L-cysteine may have an anti-aging effect by increasing glutathione levels in:
- Liver
- Lungs
- Kidneys
- Bone Marrow
NAC is currently the dietary supplement of choice for building up or conserving the body's stores of glutathione, cysteine, and other sulfhydryl antioxidant resources. NAC is well tolerated, is well absorbed, resists enzymatic breakdown, and has been proven to raise internal GSH and cysteine levels when taken orally.

How amino acids are helpful for me?
|
|
|
Amino acids are building blocks of protein and the construction material of virtually all your body's lean mass. Amino acids are critical to our body's proper functioning. Their role includes repairing muscles, organs, nails, hair, skin, ligaments and glands.

What Is The Difference Between Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids?
|
|
|
Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body. You must get them from complete protein foods or combinations of incomplete vegetable foods. There are 9 essential amino acids: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and valine. Your body can make non-essential amino acids by itself from vitamins and other amino acids.
The term "non-essential" can be misleading since all amino acids are essential for proper metabolism and certain non-essential amino acids, such as glutamine, become very essential. The 13 non-essential amino acids are alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, cysteine, cystine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, hydroxyproline, proline, serine, & tyrosine.

Why do I need branched chain amino acids?
|
|
|
Branched chain amino acids are essential for bodybuilders. Bodybuilders are required to workout on daily basis. The essential branched chain amino acids (BCAA's) are of special importance for athletes because they are metabolized in the muscle, rather than in the liver. After digestion once protein is broken down into individual amino acids these aminos can either be used to build new proteins or be burned as fuel to produce energy.
Glutamine, an amino acid, provides energy for workouts. Branched chain amino acids help you recover after exercise. They can reduce workout related injuries and provide you more energy for workout and all daylong.

What is N.A.G?
|
|
|
N.A.G (N-Acetyl-L-Glutamine) is the acetylated version of the most abundant amino acid found in skeletal muscle tissue...glutamine. N.A.G is more stable and metabolically efficient at delivering glutamines biological effects over conventional Glutamine or Glutamine Peptides. N.A.G will play a role in increasing muscle volume, glycogen storage, growth hormone production, and it will also positively affect ones own immune system function.

What is Micronized Taurine? What are the benefits of it?
|
|
|
Micronized Taurine is the 2nd most abundant amino acid found in skeletal muscle. Taurine and sulfur are considered to be factors necessary for the control of many biochemical changes that take place in the aging process. It was also found to aid in the clearing of free radical wastes.
Micronized Taurine aids the movement of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells and thus helps generate nerve impulses. It has also been shown to aid in cardiovascular health.
