Cysteine is a sulphur-containing amino acid which functions as an antioxidant and may help the body to detoxify poisons. Cysteine is found in beta-keratin, the main protein in nails, skin as well as hair. It not only is important in collagen production but also assists in skin elasticity and texture.

It has also been found that it may help in strengthening the protective lining of the stomach as well as intestines, which may help prevent damage caused by aspirin and similar drugs.

Vitamin Quest's L-Cysteine is suitable for Vegans and Vegitarians.
