Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 NAC has also been used since the 1960s as a " mucolytic " agent-that is, to break down lung-clogging mucous in chronic bronchitis and other respiratory disorders. Rich in what chemists call " free sulfhydryl groups, " NAC breaks down the disfulfide bonds of mucous-in essence, thinning it out. http://www.thenutritionreporter.com/NAC-flu_and_cold_remedy.html Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 In addition, NAC is also a mucolytic, meaning that it helps to break up mucus in the body. Because of this ability, NAC is effective in reducing symptoms of bronchitis, a condition in which mucus build up in the respiratory system is a real problem. http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/colds-flu.shtml Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
