nac precursor to glutathione N-acetylcysteine Clinical Applications Effects of N-acetylcysteine, oral glutathione

Key Benefits Activates collagen I, III, and elastin gene expression for tissue maintenance and repair Inhibits matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that destroy periodontal ligament fibers in periodontitis Reduces oxidative stress and inflammation in gingival and TMJ tissue Supports TMJ articular disc collagen remodeling and joint capsule integrity Accelerates wound healing following periodontal surgery Natural plasma levels decline with age supplementation addresses this biological deficit Delivery Methods Subcutaneous Injection Most effective systemic delivery administered per your prescribed protocol Topical / Local Application Applied directly to gingival tissue in some periodontal protocols in-office or as prescribed Note: GHK-Cu is often combined with BPC-157 or Thymosin Beta-4 in multi-peptide TMJ or periodontal protocols for synergistic collagen support and anti-inflammatory effect
