GlyNAC – 60 Capsules glycine + N-acetylcysteine • plant-based HPMC capsules • zinc contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress • food supplement
GlyNAC brings glycine and NAC together. Glycine is an amino acid and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) a modified form of cysteine; the formula also contains zinc and vitamins B1 and D3. Zinc helps protect cells from oxidative stress and, alongside vitamin D, supports normal immune function. Vitamin B1 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
- In 2 capsules: 500 mg glycine, 500 mg NAC, 1.5 mg zinc, 0.165 mg vitamin B1 and 0.75 µg vitamin D3.
- In-house development and production: L Cell develops and manufactures its supplements in its own laboratory in Vilnius, Lithuania.
- Independent lab testing: L Cell commissions regular independent tests for declared ingredient levels, heavy metals and other contaminants.
- 2 capsules daily in the morning. Approximately 30 days per pack. Hypromellose (HPMC) capsules, made without gelatine.
GlyNAC capsules: glycine and NAC, ready to take
Why are the health claims about the added nutrients? We do not have an authorised health claim for this glycine and NAC combination that we can use in this product description. The benefits stated here therefore refer to the added vitamins and minerals. Our FAQ explains how research differs from an authorised health claim.
GlyNAC contains glycine and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). The capsules also contain zinc and vitamins B1 and D3. The amount of each ingredient is listed separately in the daily-dose table.
Zinc contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Both zinc and vitamin D contribute to normal immune function. Vitamin B1 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the normal functioning of the nervous system.
Two capsules, taken with water each morning. The hypromellose shell, also known as HPMC, contains no gelatine. There is no powder to measure or drink to prepare. Find the directions under How to use and more detail in the FAQs.
Each pack contains 60 capsules: approximately 30 days at the recommended daily dose. Ingredient quantities in the table refer to two capsules, rather than one.
Look at the full formula, daily dose and format when comparing supplements. The GlyNAC name alone does not tell you how much glycine or NAC a product provides. Zinc and vitamin quantities are listed separately below.
Who might prefer capsules?
- Glycine and NAC in one formula. Take both ingredients together without measuring two separate powders.
- A vegan option. L Cell identifies this formula as suitable for vegans. The HPMC capsule shell contains no gelatine.
Dietary suitability
Important information
- Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
- Food supplements should not replace a varied diet. A varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important for good health.
- Keep out of the reach of young children.
- If you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before use. Show them the full ingredient list and details of any other supplements you take.
What makes the capsule format different?
Ingredient quantities, capsule material and laboratory checks give you useful points of comparison. Here is what this pack offers.
- Glycine and NAC together. Both main ingredients are listed individually in the daily-dose table.
- 1,000 mg glycine and NAC combined per two capsules. This is their total weight, rather than 1,000 mg NAC alone.
- Zinc and vitamins B1 and D3. Each provides 15% NRV in the recommended daily dose.
- HPMC capsule shells. Made from hypromellose, with no gelatine.
- Two capsules a day. Take each morning, before or after food, with water.
- Approximately 30 days per pack. Based on 60 capsules and the recommended daily dose of two.
- In-house development and manufacture. L Cell identifies its own laboratory in Vilnius, Lithuania, as its production site.
- Independent laboratory checks. Testing covers declared content, heavy metals and other contaminants. Each report specifies the tests performed.
- Prefer a drink to capsules? Explore GlyNAC powder, which you stir into water or another cold drink. Compare the amounts of each ingredient in the recommended daily dose before choosing a format.
For other formulas, browse our food supplements. When comparing products, check for vitamins and minerals that also appear in supplements you already take.
Glycine and NAC: two different ingredients
Glycine is an amino acid found in proteins. Your body can make it too, which is why it is classed as non-essential. That term describes the body's ability to produce it; it does not mean glycine has no role in the body.
NAC is N-acetylcysteine, a modified form of the amino acid cysteine. Adding an acetyl group creates a different molecule. Cysteine and N-acetylcysteine are therefore distinct ingredients: the same number of milligrams does not make them interchangeable.
GlyNAC brings the names glycine and NAC together. It is a blend, rather than a new amino acid. The name does not specify their proportions, the daily dose or any added vitamins and minerals.
L Cell adds zinc and vitamins B1 and D3 to its glycine and NAC capsules. When comparing them with glycine alone, NAC alone or another GlyNAC formula, read the complete ingredient table for the recommended daily dose. Capsule count and total blend weight only tell part of the story.
Why zinc and vitamins B1 and D3?
- Glycine and NAC are the main pair. Zinc and vitamins B1 and D3 add nutrients with their own recognised functions. Those functions explain what the nutrients contribute; they do not establish that the blend works better than its individual ingredients.
- Zinc contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and to normal cognitive function. Alongside vitamin D, it also contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
- Vitamin D: bones and muscles. It contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and normal muscle function. This formula uses vitamin D3. These functions belong to vitamin D and cannot automatically be attributed to the supplement’s main ingredient.
- Vitamin B1, also called thiamin, contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin D also contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
- The recommended daily dose of two capsules supplies 1.5 mg zinc, 0.165 mg vitamin B1 and 0.75 µg vitamin D3. Each provides 15% of its nutrient reference value, or NRV.
- NRVs give nutrient quantities a common reference point on food labels. 15% NRV does not mean 15% effectiveness, nor equal weights of different nutrients. Zinc and B1 are listed in milligrams; D3 is measured in micrograms.
- These benefits refer to the individual vitamin or zinc at the recommended daily dose. If you take several supplements, check for overlapping sources of the same vitamins and minerals and consider their combined intake.
- Looking primarily for zinc? Browse our zinc supplements to compare sources, daily amounts and added ingredients. It is a useful way to choose between a zinc-focused formula and a blend that also includes glycine and NAC.
Biohacking: food, movement and daily habits
Biohacking uses science, technology and changes to everyday habits to explore how the body and mind function. It can include adjustments to diet, sleep and exercise, meditation, breathing exercises or tracking selected measurements. Supplements are only one part of that wider picture.
What does biohacking involve?
- Food: a varied diet, regular eating habits and an understanding of nutrient intake.
- Sleep and rest: keeping track of sleep duration, bedtimes and time to rest during the day.
- Movement: regular activity that suits your fitness and circumstances.
- Tracking: a diary, app or wearable device to record habits and how they change.
Keeping a record helps you see what has changed in your routine. Alter your diet, exercise and several supplements at once, and it becomes harder to identify what made a difference. Consistency and a clear record of what you take are useful starting points.
Where do supplements fit in?
Compare ingredients, quantities and directions, rather than relying on a product name alone. With L Cell supplements, look at the main ingredients, added vitamins and minerals, powder or capsule format, and laboratory documentation. A varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle remain the foundation.
PraveBio also stocks brands with different specialisms. NoordCode offers functional foods and supplements, including MCT oils, collagen and electrolytes.
Jigsaw Health is an American family business founded in 2005 by Pat Sullivan and his son, Patrick Sullivan Jr. Magnesium and other mineral supplements feature prominently in its range.
BiOptimizers makes food supplements, including enzyme formulas such as the MassZymes digestive enzyme range. Each brand and product has its own composition, so compare the specific formula you are considering.
L Cell: its own laboratory and independent checks
L Cell develops and manufactures food supplements. The brand identifies its own laboratory in Vilnius, Lithuania, as the place where its formulas are made. That gives customers a traceable production location and a clearer picture of the company behind the range.
The range includes glycine with NAC, botanical extracts containing quercetin or resveratrol, and mineral supplements. Many products come as both powders and capsules. Choose the format that suits your routine, while checking the specific ingredients and daily dose for each pack.
Independent laboratories regularly check declared content and unwanted substances, including heavy metals and mycotoxins. Content testing measures the substances analysed; contaminant testing looks for unwanted impurities. Results apply to the sample and tests identified in the laboratory report.
The brand’s documentation also includes GMP and ISO 22000:2018 certificates issued to Longevita Lab and H Drop B.V. Their stated scope covers the development and sale of food supplements and snack foods. They document defined procedures and management systems; ingredient quantities require separate analytical testing.
In-house development and manufacture
L Cell identifies its own Vilnius laboratory as the site where it develops and makes supplements. You can trace the range beyond the brand name to a specific production location.
Powders or capsules
Many formulas are available in both formats. Choose between mixing into a drink and swallowing capsules, then check each ingredient amount against the recommended daily dose for that particular product.
Independent laboratory testing
Analysis covers declared ingredients and unwanted impurities. The report identifies what was measured and which sample was tested, giving you specific information about the material examined.
GMP and ISO 22000:2018
The published certificates cover the stated scope of development and sales. ISO 22000:2018 concerns food safety management systems; a laboratory analysis provides the separate evidence for ingredient quantities in a tested product.

GlyNAC capsules: your questions answered
Why do the health claims refer to the added nutrients?
Research findings and authorised health claims serve different purposes. Studies investigate substances under specific conditions. Health claims used to sell foods must meet EU requirements; the existence of a study alone is not enough.
We do not have an authorised claim for this glycine and NAC combination that we can use here. Instead, we explain the ingredients, their sources and how to take the product. The added vitamins and minerals have authorised functions that can be stated when the conditions of use are met. Those contributions belong to the named nutrients, rather than automatically applying to the main ingredient or the complete blend.
GlyNAC vs NAC: what is the difference?
GlyNAC pairs glycine with N-acetylcysteine; NAC alone means N-acetylcysteine. In a blend, some of the total weight comes from glycine. The same number on two packs can therefore represent different amounts of NAC.
Two L Cell capsules provide 1,000 mg glycine and NAC combined, rather than 1,000 mg NAC alone. Zinc and vitamins B1 and D3 are also included. Compare each ingredient in the recommended daily dose, rather than relying on the blend's total weight.
Is GlyNAC the same as glutathione?
No. GlyNAC is a mixture of glycine and N-acetylcysteine; glutathione is a different compound. A glutathione molecule contains three linked amino acids: glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. The term tripeptide describes those three amino acids joined together.
L Cell GlyNAC capsules do not contain ready-made glutathione. They supply different ingredients from a glutathione supplement. The chemical relationship alone does not prove that a particular supplement raises glutathione levels or that the two products have equivalent effects.
Should I choose GlyNAC capsules or powder?
Capsules need no measuring or mixing; powder is stirred into a drink. If swallowing capsules suits you, this format provides a pre-measured dose. Powder may suit you better if you find capsules difficult to swallow or prefer preparing a drink.
Format is only one part of the comparison. Check glycine, NAC and added nutrients per recommended daily dose on the specific pack. Two capsules do not automatically correspond to two scoops of another product: follow the directions for your chosen formula.
Why does GlyNAC include zinc and vitamins B1 and D3?
The formula supplies three nutrients alongside glycine and NAC. Zinc contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Both zinc and vitamin D contribute to normal immune function. Vitamin B1 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the normal functioning of the nervous system; vitamin D also contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
Two capsules contain 1.5 mg zinc, 0.165 mg vitamin B1 and 0.75 µg vitamin D3, each providing 15% NRV. These amounts explain what the formula supplies beyond glycine and NAC. The recognised benefits belong to the relevant vitamin or zinc; they do not, by themselves, establish a stronger effect when combined with the main pair.
Can I open GlyNAC capsules and mix the contents into food?
The capsule directions are to swallow them with water. The shells are hypromellose (HPMC), rather than gelatine. Opening them is not part of the stated method of use.
Prefer a format for mixing? Explore GlyNAC powder. It is intended for mixing and has a lightly tart taste. Compare the composition tables before switching, then follow the powder’s own directions: the glycine and NAC amounts can differ between formats.
Are these GlyNAC capsules vegan?
L Cell identifies this formula as suitable for vegans. Its capsule shell is hypromellose (HPMC), rather than gelatine. HPMC forms the shell; it is not another amino acid in the blend.
An amino acid's name does not, on its own, identify its source. Glycine on an ingredient list does not automatically mean collagen or gelatine. Vegan suitability depends on the whole formula, including the capsule shell and added vitamins, rather than just the main ingredient or a single symbol on the label.
When should I take GlyNAC capsules — with or without food?
Take two capsules each morning, before or after food, with water. This is the recommended daily dose for these L Cell capsules. A 60-capsule pack lasts approximately 30 days at that dose.
Switching from another supplement? Check the individual ingredient amounts and directions on your chosen pack. A capsule count cannot be carried over automatically to another brand or treated as the same number of powder scoops. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
What do L Cell's laboratory reports and certificates show?
Content analysis and contaminant testing answer different questions. One measures the substances analysed; the other checks unwanted impurities. The Files section includes glycine and NAC reports covering heavy metals and mycotoxins, alongside GMP and ISO 22000:2018 certificates. Mycotoxins are substances produced by certain moulds.
A raw-material report applies to the particular glycine or NAC sample, rather than automatically to the complete finished formula. Check the sample, date, batch reference and substances measured. A management-system certificate documents procedures within its stated scope; it is neither clinical evidence of a supplement's effects nor a substitute for content analysis.
What if I take medication or other supplements?
If you take medication, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before adding GlyNAC. Show them the full formula and a list of your other supplements. Ingredient quantities and combined intake matter; the GlyNAC name alone does not provide enough information.
Consider zinc and vitamins B1 and D3 from other supplements too. Do not exceed this product's recommended daily dose or change prescribed medication yourself. Seek professional advice before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Where L Cell supplements are made
Product development and manufacturing in Vilnius are part of L Cell’s own operation. The brand publishes its laboratory address and information about product testing; each supplement still needs to be considered individually.
The range includes GlyNAC with glycine and NAC, botanical extracts such as apigenin and resveratrol, and magnesium supplements. These are different ingredients, with distinct compositions and directions.
Research into an ingredient does not establish the effects of every supplement containing it. Our descriptions distinguish ingredient information from health claims applicable to a particular nutrient and dose.
Pravé Bio and L Cell
Pravé Bio, NUZBOZ s.r.o., is L Cell’s exclusive distributor for the Czech Republic. Our shop carries individual L Cell product ranges and their available formats.
We check ingredient identity, quantities and the full ingredient list. For botanical extracts, we distinguish the weight of the extract from the amount of the specified compound within it.
Powders and capsules from the same range may differ. For example, GlyNAC powder and the capsule version have different glycine-to-NAC ratios; the individual product tables show those differences.
Match your question to the exact product. When comparing options, use the product name, format and pack size. For a laboratory report, also check the sample or batch identification.
Laboratory testing and certificates
Ingredient testing and contaminant testing answer different questions. One measures the amount of an analysed ingredient; the other checks for unwanted substances such as heavy metals. The brand’s documentation includes GMP and ISO 22000:2018 certificates issued to Longevita Lab and H Drop B.V. Their stated scope covers the development and sale of food supplements and food snacks.
A management-system certificate does not replace a product analysis. A laboratory result applies to the identified sample, measured substances and method. It does not establish rejuvenation or another health outcome.
Compare like with like: the main ingredient, its amount per daily dose, the other ingredients and the number of doses in the pack.
