In what country are these manufactured?

It may be encapsulated in the US, but I wrote to NOW and the raw material comes from China. So, to say it's "made in the USA" is a bit misleading, if you asked me.

Is n-acetyl-cysteine the same thing as n-acetyl-l-cysteine, note the "l"?

N-acetyl-cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, N-acetyl cysteine, and N-acetyl-L-cysteine are all designations for the same compound, which is abbreviated as NAC. NAC is a precursor to the amino acid cysteine, which ultimately plays two key metabolic roles. Lovely stuff.

Is this product peanut free?

This product is nut-free and is not manufactured with wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nut ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens.

does this help with carb and sugar cravings?

I bought it to help with sinus congestion. It does work for that. Not sure about carb & sugar cravings.
