May stabilize blood sugar by decreasing inflammation in fat cells

Obesity and high blood sugar levels can lead to fat tissue inflammation. This can cause insulin receptor degradation or destruction, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes. According to animal research, NAC may help to normalize blood sugar by reducing inflammation in fat cells and thereby improving insulin resistance. When your insulin receptors are healthy and functional, they correctly eliminate sugar from your blood, maintaining levels within acceptable ranges. Keep in mind, however, that human research on NAC is required to establish these benefits on blood sugar regulation.

NAC is essential in the detoxification process of your body. It can aid in the prevention of pharmacological and environmental toxicity adverse effects. In fact, doctors routinely provide intravenous NAC to persons who have overdosed on acetaminophen in order to prevent or decrease renal and liver damage. NAC has the potential for different liver illnesses due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
