Dr. Tim Guildford (now of Wellness Pharmaceuticals, which makes

Wellness GSH lipo) put me on NAC way back around 2000. At the time, I

don't think even he was onto GSH's role in all this yet. But he did

carefully explain to me that NAC calmed the immune system, greatly

reducing the body's propensity for allergic reactions. Where the

upper respiratory system is concerned, it calms the mast cells in a

way that's similar to Singulair.

I found that NAC really did help calm my respiratory allergies --

which was a gift, since I can't metabolize most of the stuff like

Singulair and Allegra the allergists were trying to stick me with. (I

didn't understand the problem then. I do now.) I had no idea about

its role in GSH production until just the past year, in fact. I just

knew that when I took it, my body was a whole lot slower to react,

inflame, constrict, and wheeze.

May I ask what dosage of NAC you are taking?

Thanks.

And if you can´t take either NAC or undenatured wheys or glutathione

try using molybdenum and B6 which dose work for me. The other nearly

kill me.
