💊 NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) – Oxidative Defense & Glutamate Control
Category: BRAIN STACK
Function: Neuroinflammation Reduction & Brain Detox
Time to Take: Night (or early evening)
Why It Matters in FIRST CRASH:
When your brain is crashing, it's usually inflamed — and NAC is one of the best tools we have to calm the fire.
NAC is a powerful precursor to glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant. But it does more than just protect cells. It also helps regulate glutamate, the brain’s main excitatory neurotransmitter — which is often out of balance in conditions like anxiety, ADHD, autism, long COVID, and post-viral fatigue.
By lowering excess glutamate and oxidative stress, NAC helps stabilize brain function, improve resilience, and restore clarity — especially in burnout and post-inflammatory states.
Key Benefits:
• Boosts glutathione (critical for detox and brain protection)
• Reduces oxidative stress linked to brain fog and fatigue
• Modulates glutamate for calmer brain signaling
• May aid in clearing post-viral debris and inflammation
• Supports mental clarity and motivation during recovery
When to Use It:
Take in the evening or before bed. Can be stacked with magnesium glycinate for deep recovery or with omega-3 for inflammation support. Avoid combining with stimulants or high caffeine late in the day.
N-Acetyl Cysteine is a stable form of the non-essential amino acid Cysteine. It is a sulfur-containing amino acid that acts as a stabilizer for the formation of protein structures, and promotes the formation of glutathione. Glutathione is a powerful free radical scavenging compound that also helps to maintain normal, balanced immune system function. In addition, N-Acetyl Cysteine can help to support healthy brain and neuronal tissues.
