I love NAC. Used it since the 80's. Ton of benefits. So studies and clients of mine have had some anhedonia issues. Just have to be mindful. I recommend to take when sick feeling comes on. Liposomal Reduced Glutathione is great as well. Absolutely love all your videos ❤
NAC took 5 weeks stop my "illness". Had another two months well after that (feb this year) then got Anhedonia on two occasions which shut mind and body down for 24 hours each time. Started taking it 30 to 36 hours apart which worked for a couple of weeks. Then had a massive reaction to it leading to massive inflammation and infection markers on blood tests, 10 days of delirium, lost 11 KG (what muscle I had retained)Symptoms of bronchial infection, but definitely triggered by NAC. Am devastated. Made such a difference to my life. Now am back to feeling terrible all the time. This has gone on for decades. No one knows whats wrong with me. Blood tests come back "normal"- lost my spleen at 21, am 68 in October. Desperate for some wellbeing. Terrified of taking NAC again-got huge supply in fridge as thought I'd found a remedy. . . .
Drink a full glass of water when you take it. If you don’t your stomach will feel horrible. I take it first thing in the morning long before I have my first meal. The water works but drink at least 6 ounces. I drink 8 ounces and then I’m fine and I have had one full glass of water that day. I try for three more. Otherwise it’s horrible stomach pain nausea feels horrible. Woke up about three weeks after my fist pill & felt so good emotionally. I was very depressed and was struggling not to start anti-depressants. NAC is a miracle drug. I love it! I’m 79.
I heard that you should not take it with a protein, so I take it on an empty stomach with a big teaspoon of coconut oil, which stops me feeling the nausea, works really well for me. Namaste 🙏
Thankyou for your advice. I consume 1000mg of NAC + 1000mg Glycine daily. I am 70 years of age. No noticeable side effects, however I do enjoy a balanced nutritious diet & regular exercise.
Yeah I have carpal tunnel syndrome and I can already tell it's working on inflamation and circulation. Hope it keeps my hands warm too cause mine are terrible in the winter.
NAC can lead to symptoms of Anhedonia, where things that used to bring us joy no longer do. If nothing brings you joy, stop NAC and see if your old interests return.
As someone immune compromised I’ve used it for 20 years and can honestly say that only when I took it at 1200mg did I realize it’s therapeutic ability. 🤯 He’s 100% right, 600mg is maintenance.
Thank you ! It's a relief to see someone talk about side effects in connotations to the detox mechanism! The body is an intelligent one, its sole purpose is to keep us healthy.
I started taking NAC in the norning on an empty tummy about 2 weeks ago. The stunning effect has been it has helped my fibromyalgia insomnia, almost immediately. I normally would take my meds, doze lightly, toss and turn, then get up around 2am and take some more meds. Now I sleep through, and can get up earlier because I'm not so groggy. My watch confirmed I had deep sleep for the first time in years. Yesterday, I threw up after taking my morning supplements (has been happening in the last 3 months, sometimes after food, no pattern, need to find out why), and did not retake them. I had such a battle with sleep last night, my sciatica bothered me, I did exercises and rubbed on magnesium gel, got rid of the pain down one leg, then it went down the other, all in all a restless night with having to take more sleep meds again. So that's my anecdotal tale of how NAC has helped me, it's not a benefit that I have seen mentioned anywhere. My fear is that the effect is going to wear off with constant use, perhaps I'll have to start one day on, one day off.
Sounds like a build up of plaques in your arterial / vascular system ?? Perhaps try slow release Niacin daily + Nattokinase. Both will improve circulation & reduce the risk of clotting . A healthy nutritious diet ( including omega 3 fatty acid)!& light exercise may also help . Good luck 🙏💜✨

@@yodatwinkieit does, it actually is used for detoxification if you want to quit drinking and smoking it kind of removes the chemical compounds that makes you crave those things like noctine.

Thank you very much for explaining how you can take this. That makes me feel a lot better so I don’t worry about taking too much I take one or two a day but if I end up taking three, I don’t gotta worry about it. I really appreciate your video. I love your video. Thanks you’re very good at explaining. Thanks again that’s why I subscribe to you.🥰❤️
I took 600mg a day for two weeks and got a rash. I eat carbs and protein. I'm 86 years old. How should I clean up my diet? Peace,love and light to all of you
I used it many times to heal upset stomach, just 500mg would fix my stomach upset and stomach pains. Also if breathing issues and mucus buildup, just 500mg was enough.
Wow! I take 2.4 g a day, and have gone as high as 3 g per day. I'm not saying NAC caused it, but I developed a very severe autoimmune condition after taking at 3 g for awhile, and my inflammation levels were about 10x of others with the same disease. I think it was because the high levels of glutathione allowed my immune system to keep going well beyond what would have happened otherwise. So take care.
Thank you. I have been doing some research after coming across NAC accidentally and I can’t believe this isn’t more well known. Has some incredible benefits. But I suppose the pharmaceutical companies aren’t getting their cut and so I imagine they want to keep it on the DL 😅😂
I started NAC 600 per day about 2 weeks ago on an empty stomach and had no negative effect. Now I'm upping dosage to 1200 per day. Can 2 capsules be taken at the same time?
I take 1000mg NAC one day and 2000mg the next. Every second day I also take 3000mg of glycine. So over 48 hrs I consume 3000mg of NAC and 3000mg of glycine for a 24hr average of 1500 of each. I had asthma for 59 years until I started this regime. I have been asthma free for a year now. Absolutely fricken amazing. Zero side effects btw. I take the NAC (and glycine) just after eating 4 eggs.
@@qiqiqi-ik8tt I haven't been to the hospital, because I haven't been sick. I do comprehensive labs (50 different tests) every 90 days or so. All are perfect.
@@Jedi-em2qd supposedly NAC can cause some stomach upset if taken on an empty stomach. Doesn't need to be eggs, but that's how I break my fast and I also take DHA and EPA supplements at the same time, so having the fat in the eggs might help with absorption of those. I've never had stomach upset with NAC but I've always taken it with food. Could very well also be fine on an empty stomach; just haven't ever taken it that way.
I’ve been using NAC for nearly 2 years for peripheral neuropathy at 3,000mg daily. This along Protease, R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, Benfotamine and and L- Cituruline. When I first started I had serious pain from sciatica on both sides along with a baker’s cyst behind my left knee. Sciatica is gone and so is the baker’s cyst and the pain has decreased about 95% of what it once was.
Notes: If you take it on empty stomach and with little water, no food and you feel sick, think about what it is doing.. If you do the same and there is no reaction, then this is a good sign that you dont have issue. great.
Hallo, I was reading in a book that NAC should always be taken together with Vit C in a 1:2 ratio to avoid kidney stones. Are there any recent studies on that or is this outdated? What is your opinion ? Thxs
I’m started taking NAC for insomnia. I’m on Trazadone and it not working for sleep for many yrs.less and less effective. Looking forward to replacing the Pharma meds with a more natural supplement . Thanks!
Hello Dr. Could you explain the difference between L-Cystine (not cysteine)/ and NAC? I’ve read that they’re two different compounds, I’ve tried to research more but i can’t seem to find the right definition. Thank you!
I recommend against taking it unless you have an ailment that will benefit from it. It shut down my inflammatory healing pathways and as a result i got severe tendonitis. I quickly identified the culprit and within a week my pathways were back to normal but it took months to rebuild my tendons. There are trials showing that it significantly hinders muscle repair and growth after exercise.
@badactor3440 Not according to "Thiol based antioxidant supplementation alters human skeletal muscle signaling and attenuates its inflammatory response and recovery after exercise"
Oh my God, my biggest ADHD problem, destroys my life, thank you for this, as I am just reading this planning to increase my dose as I was just taking it at night time as Glynac.

Hey Dr. Z Every time I try and go on a fast or start keto I end up failing miserably But i did something different I quit soda 🥤 (water only) Would love to see a video about the Heath benefits and changes our body experiences from quitting soda
I had a very difficult time adjusting to ADF (36 hours). Failed miserably until I started taking Psyllium Husks on fast days around normal feeding time. Just twice a day. Using it less and less. Has helped my fasting tremendously.
I had to stop taking NAC - even a low dose would give me fatigue, low mood, heart palpitations. I tried to start very low and work up so I didn't give up easily, but it wasn't for me. Perhaps it was the brand, but I don't feel like trying another one right now. Thanks for sharing though.
@@nancywolf3786 Yes I did, started off with a small dose and tried to work up. It helped me sleep better but i felt bad the next day...my mood dipped and I felt like I'd had hardly any sleep at all! I used Natural Factors NAC 600 mgs. Since gone in the bin...
Glycine, NAC and glutamate are the 3 major precursors to cellular glutathione production. It is critical to have all three amino acids in order to produce glutathione
I'm taking once a day with empty stomach I've been notice my skin is getting lighter and regular my everyday releasing main reason why im taking this NAC cuz i feel i have too much mucus in it does work.
It's maybe my imagination but i took 1200mg of nac 30 min ago on empty stomach with only liquid omwga 3 fish oil, I've been slightly sick from 6 days, cough, little bit of fever in the evenings, and now my nose is open, and in my chough there is way way way less mucus almost nothing
How come NAC can be giving allergic reactions? Is it because it is harvested from hair as the source? Or would any synthetic NAC also give the same reactions?
I had a heart transplant and I would like to try it, but I don't know if it will effect my imuno supresent drugs. My cardiologist always says the same thing for any supplements, that they can't say how it will react to it, so they prefer that I don't take it.
I have read that it can cause heart palpitations in some people in reviews I’m trying to learn more so I have read a lot of comments and watch a ton of videos on amino acids and on this particular amino . Good for some people but not always tolerant by everyone. . God bless you.💕🙏
Can you explain to me how NAC is coming from nature? It's a modified amino acid. It has been chemically altered with an acetyl group to improve uptake.
It gave me a bad headache too when I took it without food. I'm not sure if that's how you're taking it, but try with food and see if that helps. It also could be because that it was causing my body to detox, which gave me a headache, but I don't think that was it. In addition to headache, I also sweat profusely and feel flushing. This is at 600 mg, and I wouldn't dare go higher. It also makes me urinate a lot, and makes me extremely hyper because I have way too much energy. All of this is blunted when I take with food, but still noticeable. If there is a 300 mg capsule, I think I'll buy that and take that more routinely instead as an experiment. As it is with 600 mg, I usually take for 1-3 days, then need a break. I will add, now that I finished the video, that I have a very healthy lifestyle: I eat healthier than pretty much anyone I know, I exercise, I have lots more energy than most people and feel great. I have however had gut issues in the past. I'm not sure if it would be too simplistic to attribute my symptoms to detoxing too fast (am I filled with a lot of toxins?). My body always processes everything I take extremely quickly, so perhaps there's something to that.
I've used NAC with ethyl ester which is supposed to allow better absorption if I remember correctly.I lost interest in certain things and I'm pretty sure it made me depressed. Maybe I should try nac without ethyl ester.
What causes the flush feeling in the face? It caused my burning neuropathy to flare up within 20 min ingestion(1g NAC and glycine each). What's the mechanism that's causing this reaction?
I have a mouthful of Mercury fillings and have taken NAC for several years with no problem, and possibly it helps to detox them, that would be great as I know they are released into your mouth with hot drinks. Namaste 🙏
i have OCD (trichotillomania) and would like to try NAC. i am on lisinopril for hypertension (only 20mg) and wondered if i can still try this for ~12 weeks to help my OCD symptoms. i have read that it lowers BP.

@@dr.nickzyrowskiglycine is super cheap
@@dr.nickzyrowskiis not there great health benefits with Glycine anyway?
Glycine, NAC and glutamate are the 3 major precursors to cellular glutathione production. It is critical to have all three amino acids in order to produce glutathione
I take 4000mg Nac and glycine every day and feel awesome never sick and bromelain 53 and feel like 30😊
Thanks for the advice. I am taking the minimum dosis every day. Is it necessary a period of time without NAC before to start again?? Thanks
What's your take on Ethyl Ester NAC? Is 100mg enough?
Yes 😊
I'm taking once a day with empty stomach I've been notice my skin is getting lighter and regular my everyday releasing main reason why im taking this NAC cuz i feel i have too much mucus in it does work.
Thank you, helpful info
I diluted the powder in water and it turned out to be very acidic, almost like ascorbic acid. Is this how it should be?
It's maybe my imagination but i took 1200mg of nac 30 min ago on empty stomach with only liquid omwga 3 fish oil, I've been slightly sick from 6 days, cough, little bit of fever in the evenings, and now my nose is open, and in my chough there is way way way less mucus almost nothing
I'm curious what you think about the combination of NAC and glycine. There have been a couple of studies that have shown benefits for older people.
Maybe I have a lot to detox, I do 3000mg x 2 a day, no side affects noted
Thanks Nick 😊
How come NAC can be giving allergic reactions? Is it because it is harvested from hair as the source? Or would any synthetic NAC also give the same reactions?
I took 3-5 g for like 2 months and got anhedonia. So be really carefull with it.
That’s a lot of
Too much
Why would you take that much?
That is a lot! 600 mg would be fine. You were taking 3,000 to 5000 mg? 😮
How many mg are in a size 00 capsule? 💊
high doses of NAC may interfere with hepatic GSH levels and damage both the liver and kidneys
Should you take it with vit c and glycine for better benefits?
absolutely
Thank you for sharing.
Does this works for auto-immuundisease of the intestines? And what is the effect in combo with other regular medications?
I had a heart transplant and I would like to try it, but I don't know if it will effect my imuno supresent drugs. My cardiologist always says the same thing for any supplements, that they can't say how it will react to it, so they prefer that I don't take it.
conheci um transplantado que viveu muitos anos . Deus te abençoe, jesus te ama . brazil
I have read that it can cause heart palpitations in some people in reviews I’m trying to learn more so I have read a lot of comments and watch a ton of videos on amino acids and on this particular amino . Good for some people but not always tolerant by everyone. . God bless you.💕🙏
What about endometriosis
Could I take it with nattokinase or at different times?
Can you explain to me how NAC is coming from nature? It's a modified amino acid. It has been chemically altered with an acetyl group to improve uptake.
For some reason NAC gives me a headache. Even at low doses. Bummer.
It gave me a bad headache too when I took it without food. I'm not sure if that's how you're taking it, but try with food and see if that helps. It also could be because that it was causing my body to detox, which gave me a headache, but I don't think that was it. In addition to headache, I also sweat profusely and feel flushing. This is at 600 mg, and I wouldn't dare go higher. It also makes me urinate a lot, and makes me extremely hyper because I have way too much energy. All of this is blunted when I take with food, but still noticeable. If there is a 300 mg capsule, I think I'll buy that and take that more routinely instead as an experiment. As it is with 600 mg, I usually take for 1-3 days, then need a break. I will add, now that I finished the video, that I have a very healthy lifestyle: I eat healthier than pretty much anyone I know, I exercise, I have lots more energy than most people and feel great. I have however had gut issues in the past. I'm not sure if it would be too simplistic to attribute my symptoms to detoxing too fast (am I filled with a lot of toxins?). My body always processes everything I take extremely quickly, so perhaps there's something to that.
Me too and I heard that this could be because of “detoxing” and when I continued taking it, it went away
Clean up other unhealthy things in your life
Try another brand
I've used NAC with ethyl ester which is supposed to allow better absorption if I remember correctly.I lost interest in certain things and I'm pretty sure it made me depressed. Maybe I should try nac without ethyl ester.
Do you use glycerin with nac?
Yes
Yes. 1000mg of each daily. Both are precursors for Glutathione 🤗
NO! Not Glycerine! But Glycine. It's not the same
Oops, sorry, of course Glycine. I think it was the prompter, glycerin was highlighted from typing gly, just like now, got to watch that, sorry.
Blame Google for typographical errors.
GLYNAC = glycine + NAC are the precursors for Glutathione 🤗
What causes the flush feeling in the face? It caused my burning neuropathy to flare up within 20 min ingestion(1g NAC and glycine each). What's the mechanism that's causing this reaction?
Does NAC cause heart palpitations ?
Do you use it with cancer patients.
I am suffering from aczema from last 10 years .Skin specialist only prescribe steroide creams and antihistamine which work temporary.
Look into L- Histidine for eczema.
Try castor oil for your skin condition.
Antihistamine it's PROVEN (when taken for quite a while...to give Alzheimer's later on‼️🆘)
Eczema is exacerbated by grains and other inflammatory foods. Perhaps modify your diet.
23 for the bottle 100 for delivery! Then from usd to aud. Who can afford this
Can it be taken with glutathione?
Can I take taurine, glycine and niacin with it?
Can you take it with probiotics??
Yes
Do you recommend for kids as young as 8 years old . What brand ?
If you aren't taking Glycine with your NAC........... 😵💫
Ascorbate also
How good is the Walmart brand compared to other brands? Can it be taken with other supplements like " super beets?"
Nac Powder is more cheaper, any difference with pills ?
Can you take it every other day?
I take 1800 Mg Brayen Johnson take 2600 mg
is it different from S-Acetyl ?
Can it be used in conjuction with Diltiazem?
Does it work for Accutane toxicity? Thank you
I am 29 yr old can I take this and for how long we should continue taking this
Has anyone taken it for chronic sinusitis
So what is the difference between NAC and n-acetyl l-cysteine? Is the latter better absorbed?
They are one in the same. NAC stands for N-Acetyl Cysteine.
Thanks @@dulaneygibson2014
What about mercy fillings and NAC?
I have a mouthful of Mercury fillings and have taken NAC for several years with no problem, and possibly it helps to detox them, that would be great as I know they are released into your mouth with hot drinks. Namaste 🙏
i have OCD (trichotillomania) and would like to try NAC. i am on lisinopril for hypertension (only 20mg) and wondered if i can still try this for ~12 weeks to help my OCD symptoms. i have read that it lowers BP.
Hi there
Did you start with NAC ? If so, did it subside your OCD & Trich urges ?
Me too suffering from these issues 😢
