- Provides antioxidants.
What NAC is
N-acetyl-L-cysteine is a form of the amino acid cysteine with an acetyl group attached. Cysteine is one of the three amino acids that make up glutathione, which is why NAC is often described as a glutathione precursor.
What "liposomal" means here
A liposome is a tiny sphere with a wall made of phospholipids, the same type of fat that forms the membranes around your cells. In a liposomal liquid, the active ingredient is held inside those spheres instead of being dissolved loose in the liquid. CanPrev builds its liposomes from sunflower phosphatidylcholine, so the formula is soy-free, and uses a multilayered structure, with one phospholipid layer nested inside another.
The practical draw is format. A teaspoon of fruit-flavoured liquid is easier than another capsule, and it is a good fit for anyone who finds pills hard to swallow.
Flavour and ingredients
The strawberry taste comes from natural strawberry, raspberry and vanilla flavours, sweetened with xylitol and sucrose. Beta-carotene adds colour, and vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) is there to keep the oils fresh. CanPrev lists it as vegan and GMO-free, with no gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, yeast, artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.
The CanPrev liposomal range
CanPrev makes several liquids in the same liposomal format, including Liposomal GABA, Liposomal CoQ10 and Liposomal Vitamin C, plus Liposomal Glutathione in single-serve sachets. If glutathione itself is what you are after, the sachets provide it directly rather than its precursor.
