Guest guest Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Can somebody please help me understand if NAC used WITHOUT any type of chelator is harmful or not? And if so why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 NAC recycles vitamin C and E so I view it as a helper with oxidative stress. Apparently ALA also recycles other vitamins. I bought the NAC to help in my off chelation days. I had no idea it was a weak chelator so I may just have to use it during chelation days now.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hi If you have'nt done so already it might be worth trialling a sulfur exclusion diet for around 7 days and instead of adding high sulfur foods back at the end of this period maybe try adding NAC and see if there are negatives or positives. http://livingnetwork.co.za/chelationnetwork/food/high-sulfur-sulphur-food-list/ Kenny > > How soon can you tell if NAC is not good for your child? > > Thanks > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Thanks Kenny She always did well with ALA, so I thought she'd be okay with NAC, but it's very hard to tell what's good or bad right now! I will try the diet to make sure. Thanks m > > > > How soon can you tell if NAC is not good for your child? > > > > Thanks > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 My son also had a tough time with NAC.I stopped it after three days.He can very well tolerate sulfur foods but not NAC.He couldn't sit or stand even for a min.He was just running for hours and hours and so on.As soon as i stopped he was back to normal.

One of the main benefits of NAC is that it can be a precursor of glutathione along with glutamine and glycine for those who have low plasma cysteine. For those with high plasma cysteine, glutamine and glycine may be enough without NAC, in this case NAC may actually cause problems so a sulfur(thiol exclusion diet) might be worth trialling 1st to be on the safe side, it was with me personally and also for my son.
