Great info, but in the future when speaking about a supplement, it would be nice to hear “When NOT take NAC (or some other supplement)” as in possible expected symptoms of the detoxification process. Thanks!
Absolutely, SO VERY IMPORTANT!
Started taking NAC 2 months ago.
Reduced my golf handicap by 11 strokes!
Is this Man a genius??!!
Thanks for the support! - Team Dr. A
It also wraps around and neutralizes covid Spike proteins. That's what I started using it for.
It also reduces lung inflammation.
I've heard it also helps open constricted airways.
Please make a video on neuroinflammmation and how this is related to different type of diseases! And how to deal with it
Great idea! We'll put it in the line up - Team Dr. A
@@Dr.PaulAnderson Yes please do.
@@Dr.PaulAnderson I'd be interested too, I have a piece of skull missing (2x craniotomies) and I can tell instantly when any inflammation starts. One whiff of any cleaning products, one bite of synthetic stuff and my ear starts clicking!
@@allicat31103 yep same for me here! For me it’s because of viral infection. I wonder how neuroinflammation differs for certain types of illnesses. Like multiple sclerosis, or traumatic brain injury. Internal of external causes. Pretty excited for the video. @dra_online good luck! 🍀
@allicat me too!
I started using NAC a couple years ago as a "liver protector", just ignorantly and blindly believing in its effectiveness. Older and wiser, i thank you for concisely and comprehensively explaning exactly what it does, i can truly understand everything after going down the metabolic rabbit hole. Thank you for these videos, they're educational and helpful to manny many people.
Did you see any improvement in liver issues?
@@indranikg5521 yeah, alt and ast were always great, I always pregame with 4 tequila shots before going to bars as a reference for the level of alcohol I could tolerate. Years later my liver is my healthiest organ, I worry more about kidney and microbiome health nowadays.
Btw, NAC should NOT be taken long term without its cofactors :
Molybdenum
Selenium
Zinc
Vit B6
NAC doses typically avbl in 500mg or above by most vendors are without research. Cysteine was neve meant to be consumed in mega doses relative to other aminos... , but only in nominal amounts.
I do NOT take NAC , but focus on activating transsulfuration pathway & intracellular endogenous synthesis of cysteine from methionine. Doing so also gives benefits of methionine, and helps balance transulfuration/Cysteine pathway with SAMe by balancing SAM/SAH ratios (folate, b12, glycine cofactors).
You also need to balance Cysteine with Glycine to aid the detox process in the liver & kidneys.
I think you need to make your own video to explain this in lay terms 👍
Please cover in detail a subject that you once touched on and that is the adverse effect of using NAC for some people who have unusual genetic traits. I believe I am one of these people I urgently need more information and guidance. Please discuss this subject
Never heard of this. What's the potential side effects for these types of people?
@@StyleshStorm ruclips.net/video/qcPEEtzPnao/видео.htmlsi=xAljyYU_ABUEbsL-
Yes.PLEASE!! I am also unsure if it helped me to detox and that's why.i felt sick or if it was too much . I tried it and give it break and then went back to it at a lower dose but the same.pain,lethargy, sleeplessness returned.
I'm currently having blood tests done and I am a COPD patient as well as asthma. But I certainly dont to want to use it.and feel I must stick through the.misery to get better IF IN FACT ITS HARMING ME AND USELESS.
Many thanks❤
@@retro000 Your comments were interesting in that I did not have CoVid but a severe reaction to my second vaccine. 9 hours after I arose from sleep and took 4 steps and fell in a complete muscle failure. I could not even prop myself up on my elbows. I was dragged to bed. 4 hours. later I decided to get up thinking it had been an anomaly and would not happen again. But it did. Was treated by neurologists at prestigious UCSF who told me that such a reaction was known by them. Took me a while to return to normal. It seemed to me that this panel of doctors were operating on a “hush hush” basis. You get my implication. What a sorry way for the medical field to operate but that was the case then.
Some of us had a bad reaction to it!
What about NAC Ethyl Ester- supposedly 20 x more bioavailable than regular NAC.?
I took NAC with Gluthiathone (what do I have to lose, I am so fatigued and in pain) Oh goodness, never again, I felt as I'd been given Amphetamines, 3 days and nights to settle down!! Bit of a body shock!!
Exactly what happened to me. I have taken too much Tylenol and codeine as for.pain, ama.COPd.pateint and so though NAC.would be fantastic. I felt awful, no energy, sleeplessness,pain, aching,joints and thought well...uts helping me detox and many have said it's a great detox. But I've GOT TO KNOW IF ITS WRONG FOR ME. PLEASE HELP!
What's your take on mushrooms 🍄 as part of a treatment ? Muscimol from Muscaria or reishi, turkey tail, etc. They seem to be very promising.
Great topic idea! We'll put it in the line-up - Team Dr. A
CanDoctors still prescibe mucomyst or is it not available? Thank you for this information!
Hi Dr Anderson, I do a GlyNac supplement. Not sure how they differ but I kind of remember people saying GlyNac is better. Do you find that to be true? Thanks a lot!
Can we take NAC continuously everyday?
What’s on Aumented version of NAC?
Does NAC interfere with or break down the mucous layer in the gut? I’ve been having severe gastrointestinal distress since I started taking it. Wondering if there is a connection? 🤔
NAC + GLYCINE
Check out our other videos on GlyNAC - Team Dr. A
Adding Glycine caused tachycardia and a week of POTS. A single tiny dose.
@@seattledutch an exception.
Dose ???
There has been some studies showing NAC accelerating existing cancers. Can you kindly share your feedback on that ?
Read the same information!
How long should I be on NAC for? I started taking it for long covid about a month ago (working well, along with other supplements, ie quercetin/bromelain and nattokinase and serrapeptase). I've just purchased augmented NAC, as my bottle of NAC is almost used up.
Do you take them all daily, or stagger supplements?
@@lynetteprice8519 I take them daily, but having said that, I've only been on the nattokinase/serrapeptase for coming up to 30 days, and the NAC for a little bit longer - nearly finished that jar and want to see if there is any noticeable difference with the augmented NAC, as it is supposed to be so much better. No point in asking my Dr these things! I think everything I'm taking must have worked remarkably, as I fully expected to spend the rest of the year in bed, but the turnaround within the last couple of weeks has been amazing.
Hello, what about the video from a few days ago about limiting NAC due to feeding certain cancers.
How can this not even be mentioned? And then I look thru my other account and the comments are completely deleted. I guess that's what happens when a youtube channels priority is profit.
We’ll be publishing a follow up video on this topic soon - Team Dr. A
Sir, is it correct that you may not take NAC when you have histamine intolerance? 🙏
I would like to know this as well and how it interacts ( or if it has an affect ) on homeocystine as well. Please let us know for histamine intolerance too. Thank you!
I think is other way around...you should take it. At least that is what i found out on supplement box
Why? Why do I, as a person, have to say and spell everything correctly like; L-Cysteine, Alprazolam, or Oxycodone, when doctors or pharmacists, get to say Acetylcysteine, Norco, and Benzos... You know, like "Benzo the clown!!!" 😫 Or, even when they say "Drugs" You are Dr.Anderson, not "Haydock!!!" Thank You.
I was really excited taking on NAC, but it gave me a very noticeable anhedonia. I've tried taking it with glycine but the anhedonia didn't go away. How do I avoid the anhedonia?
What is adhedonia?
@@tacocat8608 feeling emotionally numb, not interested in things anymore, you don't feel pleasures anymore.
Same problem
watch some comedy, lift weights, do some sprints, smoke a little weed (just one or two puffs), try a boxing class, try a yoga class, play some loud music
Same here! Just try real small doses and not everyday. I was like a empty rock with no emotion! It's actually common on reddit can read about it.
