Kim:

Just wanted you to be aware that NAC and the methyl B12 can increase yeast.

However, I just read a study that reported glutathione was elevated by Vitamin C

more effectively than NAC.

[ ] Re: Please help answer ALA question...

Thanks for your suggestions. We were pretty low dose, but not the

lowest of doses...which we can do Feb 17-20th..our next round.

You mentioned that it is best to add precursers of glutathione as

opposed to supplementing directly with glutathione...are you

referring to NAC? Since it appears that we are " low cysteine " ,

wouldnt it make sense then that NAC would be good, especially given

his reaction to ALA? And, if you do think NAC would be good, any

suggestions as to what brand, type?

Oh, also we just got the MB-12 injections in the mail, but didnt want

to start them our very first ALA weekend.

Thanks again, still seem to be learning so much here. Kim

Was it because glutathione was spared (the body used vit. C instead for fighting

oxidative stress)? Or is there

a direct way vit. C increases glutathione?
