I have to confess. I recently posted about my success with Nicotine patches. I just found this important on Glynac. Short for glycine and NAC. I’ve taken restore, gold pretty much since diagnosed. I don’t sell the stuff, but I am believer in its ingredients. NAC is the primary ingredient.
About the same time as starting the nicotine patches, I started supplementing glycine on protocol to fix my MTHFR pathway. I was already taking restore, gold which had NAC. I started to feel amazing. Seriously. I don’t know if it’s the combination of the two or one or the other. Watching this video I’m more convinced that it’s probably the GylNAC.
Long story short. After the age of 45 glutathione levels plummet. I don’t know the exact specifics, but by the age of 60, compared to a 20-year-old, you have about a third as much glutathione. Parkinsons patients know how important glutathione is. The amazing part of the study is that after 16 weeks, of supplementing Glynac, 60-year-old levels of glutathione was almost the same as the younger group. That’s amazing.
The problem with supplement glutathione we now know more about the body. There is a balance. The old way of thinking, you could never have enough anti oxidants. That is not correct. The lipsomal glutathione Inject itself into the cell. The problem is balance. Parts of your body different parts of glutathione. Glynac basically provides all the ingredients which your body needs to make glutathione so the body can regulate its production.
Seriously everyone who has Parkinson’s needs to try this. I take a dose four times a day, it seems to do before bed has completely made me sleep, so wonderfully. This video explain it perfectly.
i’ve been whittling down my supplements, I just don’t think now that it’s good to over supplement everything. I think I was doing lots of times more harm than good. However by accident, I basically now know that I was doing this study by by taking Restore Gold, Glynac and Tru-Niagen.
Is this a capsule? How much glycine per capsule or pill? How much NAC per capsule or pill? So if I am understanding this correctly you are taking 4 capsules or pills per day?
I take it as part of restore gold. I take 600 mg NAC 4 times a day. 3 from RG and 1 from a NAC 600mg supplement. I may go up another 600 mg NAC . Glycine least 8 grams, be careful, it can cause sleepiness. I use 1/2 and 1/2 glycine capsules and powder
so 8000 mg of glycine? This is more than I expected. I did see some glynac supplements that had 1000 mg glycine and 600 mg of NAC per capsule so that was why I was wondering because that seemed like a high dose
So glad to hear of your improvements. How long have you been feeling better? What exactly do you mean by "completely made me sleep"? And how long/consistently have you been sleeping? Sleeping is a really big problem for my husband. I shall try to watch the video and then see if I have more of an understanding.
It was pretty rapid but I also started nicotine patches at the same time. I take the patch off while I sleep, it wakes me up if I forget and leave it on.
Hubby has been on NAC for a year. Nothing, and I mean nothing has worked like n i c o t i n e gum. He has been on Azilect, Neu Pro patch, Lev/Carb with Entacapone, Modafinil, Concerta, Caffeine Pills and of course anti depressants and ativan which do wonders for daytime sleepiness....Side effects almost ended our ability to live together as a family. Including aggression, compulsive behaviour, debilitating sleepiness, brain fog, etc. Missed ten years of life basically. Couldn't attend weddings, funerals, school plays, you name it. Then he went to the drug store and picked up a pack gum....I guess we do our own study before the ban.
thanks! I’m very interested but the link is not working. Also I see that that there is now something called Glynac-et? Also are Glynac and Restore the same thing?
GylNAC is just short for gylcine and NAC. I’m sure a supplement company probably put the two of them together because it’s such a powerful combination. Restore Gold is a Parkinson’s specific supplement that contains NAC.
taking glycine at high doses, can make you very tired, so be aware. I spread it out through the day. You might be effective at 1-3 g. There is an MTHFR protocol that requires a higher dose that I’m going through that compensates for severe form.
I’m no expert by any means. The study that was talked about in the video was 100 mg of both NAC and glycine per kilogram of weight. That’s a massive dose. I think if you were going to take it every day, that might be wasteful. Not harmful but wasteful. They had a 16 week study.
If anyone is on Glycine+NAC powder, please let me know how to take it? Is it ok to mix it 1:1 and add to a shaker with water and sip? Or is it to be added to a glass of water and gulped down?
Also how to titrate up to 100mg/kg/d? The research paper does not list any titration method.
I did a much higher dose. That sounds like a good plan. I’ve actually doing pretty well. I’m smelling things I haven’t smelled in years. I’m gonna go back on glycine as soon as my overdose symptoms, subside. Overdose symptoms were worse pd, really out of it. Like I was living in haze
