NAC supplements

[AmmieM]

I have been taking 500 mg three times a day, and wondering if I should increase. How many milligrams do you take?

thank you

I wouldn’t take any! I used to until I realised that my disease was progressing whether I too the stuff or not

I take NAC 1200 mg with Taurine 1000 mg: 1 hour before bed.

I read somewhere that NAC helps clean out the brain and that cleaning cycle runs while you are sleeping.

Added Taurine because of this: Taurine and its analogs in neurological disorders: Focus on therapeutic potential and molecular mechanisms 2019: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/a... The combination of a subeffective dose of taurine and low and subeffective doses of N-acetyl cysteine afforded better cytoprotection against rotenone induction than taurine treatment alone and action may be mediated via anti-oxidative mechanisms

I have a High School degree, so buyer beware

Here is a new kid on the block.

Here are two studies on this new formulation so you can decide if this formulation makes sense and worth the dollars
