When the liver is overloaded, it can't process fat properly, making it harder to lose weight. NAC helps the liver work better so fat can be processed normally.

Scientific Claim

Hepatic glutathione depletion impairs fat metabolism and insulin signaling, leading to inefficient fat processing and blood sugar dysregulation; NAC supplementation restores hepatic glutathione levels, improving liver function and fat metabolism.

Original Statement

Okay. Okay. So when glutathon runs low, fat handling suffers, takes a back seat. Insulin signaling becomes sloppy. Energy becomes inconsistent. So you have to think of the liver like almost almost an air traffic controller. Okay? It's like when it's overwhelmed, fat just backs up into circulation. Planes can't land, things get jacked up, blood sugar control worsens, fat loss stalls. NAC helps clear the traffic so that the planes can land and complete the job. And that's why improving liver health often improves fat loss indirectly without changing calories. Okay, still got the same amount of planes flying around. They're just able to land.
