NAC

[Guest guest]

I've been taking NAC since February and it took about 6 months before I noticed any difference. My cough was much harsher than it is now.

Most of us get it from Pilgrim's Pride when you can order 3 for the price of 2. I take 1 in the morning and 1 at night. Someone told me you need to take viatmain C with it so that it breaks down well enough for your body to absorb it ( like making sure you take Vitamin D with your calcium) I'm not sure if that is true or not but I take 200 mgs of Vit C with each Nac capsule just in case. There is a bunch of stuff online about it and my doctor said it couldn't hurt. Plus !!!! our website guru recommends it so I take it! He will probably fill you

in on why we take it. linda zion <ljz741comcast (DOT) net> wrote: Sher, What is NAC? You mentioned it previously and I haven't been able to find info about it.
