Nutricost N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC) 600mg, 180 Capsules - Non-GMO, Gluten Free

Never heard of this before or anyone ever talk about it in person, on TV, nothing, and what a shame because I believe this is a miracle for me. I am obese, and have asthma. I ended up in the emergency walk in clinic because of low Oxygen and just feeling like I was dying. My o2 level below 90 (no insurance, so no hospital). Reading on the backside of the paperwork they discharged me with, I see recommendations of a probiotic and a NAC supplement taken 2x a day. I had to look NAC up online to see what this is all about. It mentions EVERYTHING wrong with me chronically, and almost a "too good to be true" wonderdrug. I put my order in, carefully considering what others said about the smell, and decided to go with this brand, and so glad I did. No smell to speak of, easy swallow, and feeling the results in just a few days in my lungs. It seems to work on a whole variety of things that need fixing in my body, and who knew it's been around 30 years?? Why hasn't this been discussed elsewhere or other practitioners talking about this? Low cost inexpensive and works probably why.For me, this has been a life changer. My o2 was at +/-90 a few days ago, and now up to a 93/94 after a few days and hope to get it up to a 98 very soon. I was never into supplements or taking lots of meds, but will keep this one up. I ordered a device to also help lung capacity, so excited to get that in and see if I can change my life around. This one new discovery is my game changer and the boost I need to breathe better again without breaking the bank and no side effects for me.May 21-25Update...I cut back on the NAC because I am feeling better and it seems to work a little strong for me. My oxygen is 95-97 consistently now, which is probably my new normal. I found taking even 1 a day was drying me out too much, dry cough, dry throat, sort of a diuretic, getting up more than I like at night to #1, especially if I took at bedtime. I am using 1 pill about 2-3x a week now, mid day and seems better. I am glad I have this though when I get sick with another dreaded upper respiratory, start taking these right away.

Been using this for a week or more now with no ill effects. No idea if it is helping me stay sane, clearing up my respiratory system or calming my liver down, but so far so far so good.. Nice sized pills. Easy enough to swallow. Like the dosage amount. I'll keep taking it.I'd advise anyone getting any basic vitamins or minerals to look up the bioavailability of any supplement. NAC is usually low, so the dosage you will need to take over the course of the day may be higher than what is recommended on the package. That's where seeing your doc comes into play.

I've been incorporating NAC supplements into my daily regimen for the past few months, and the benefits have been remarkable. Not only do I feel more energized, but I've also noticed improved clarity and focus throughout the day.The capsules are easy to swallow and don't have any unpleasant aftertaste, which is a big plus. I appreciate that they're free from unnecessary fillers and allergens, aligning well with my health-conscious lifestyle.One of the standout benefits has been the support for my respiratory health. During seasonal changes, I often experience mild congestion, but since starting NAC, those instances have significantly decreased.Overall, NAC has become a staple in my supplement lineup. It's a simple yet effective way to support overall health, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their wellness journey.

My body generally feels better. This supplement is very versatile, and I have a list of not picky tweaks, I want to resolve.

This supplement is amazing! I noticed a huge jump in my energy and focus immediately. It also boosts my mood and productivity. It has been so helpful in getting me through days that require a lot of energy and focus. I will be taking this every day from now on!

I started taking these supplements and within a few weeks I noticed my urge to scratch my skin condition has lessened. Would definitely purchase again.

Saw on YouTube where this can help with cravings of marijuana when quitting. It helped me tremendously

NAC is a source of L-Cysteine that brands like Cheers restore use to reduce the effects of hangovers. Cheers and similar brands are transparent in their blends so it's not hard to recreate the effects with different supplements. L-Cysteine and DHM are both the active ingredients in most hangover aids, so this is one of two parts to DIY it.There are a few huge benefits to going the DIY route. NAC is supposed to be taken PRIOR to drinking for the best effects, and most aids that contain it are a few pills that you take AFTER. Some studies show it might be detrimental to take it after drinking, even. I'd recommend doing your own research before taking any supplement with/around alcohol, but this relationship is pretty well known. Also, by splitting the supplements up, you can control what you're actually taking. The pre-mixed ones typically have a laundry list of supplements, some of which can cause adverse reactions. By isolating each, you know how you react.The other benefit is cost - this with DHM is pennies per dose, versus 3 bucks a pop for name brand hangover relief, and cheaper ones have very lose dosages. I can't comment on if the dosages are correct and manufacturing is consistent, but through a few nights drinking, I can reliably say it significantly helps with my hangovers.
