I'm 57 and nearly died of Covid. I have had mucous buildup in my lungs due to allergies since puberty. I've taken NAC since coming home from the hospital in 2021 and my morning cough has greatly lessened due to its mucolytic effect.

Danes did a 4 year study of NAC. All good. Big improvements especially if you have COPD. Recommended dose of 1200 mg. per day.

Thank you for the feedback - we'll do a video with more details on this in the future. For now the section discussing NAC & cancer has an example treatment approach that can be discussed with managing physicians. - Team Dr. A

The video covers several topics related to N-acetylcysteine (NAC), its uses, safety concerns, and implications in cancer treatment. Here’s a summary along with a fact-check on key points: NAC and Cancer: Claim: NAC can potentially strengthen certain cancer cells if they are exposed to it. Fact Check: Research has shown mixed results. While NAC can promote the survival of normal cells by contributing to glutathione production, its impact on cancer cells varies. Some studies suggest that high levels of glutathione might help some cancer cells resist chemotherapy, whereas others indicate that antioxidants like NAC could potentially reduce cancer risk. However, the effect depends heavily on the type of cancer and its stage, as well as the overall health and treatment plan of the individual. Safety of NAC in People with Sulfa Drug Allergies: Claim: People with sulfa drug allergies might react to NAC because it contains sulfur. Fact Check: Sulfa allergies are reactions to specific compounds found in sulfa drugs, not to sulfur itself, which is a natural element found in many substances, including NAC. The risk of cross-reactivity between sulfa drugs and NAC is generally low, but caution is advised for individuals with a history of severe drug allergies. NAC and Respiratory Conditions: Claim: NAC can be risky for individuals with reactive airway diseases like asthma because it can increase sulfite levels which may trigger asthma symptoms. Fact Check: NAC is often used to treat respiratory conditions due to its mucolytic (mucus-thinning) properties and ability to support glutathione production, which is critical for maintaining lung health. However, individuals who are sulfite-sensitive may experience issues, as NAC can metabolize into sulfites. It is crucial for individuals with asthma to consult healthcare providers before starting NAC, particularly if they have known sulfite sensitivity. NAC Smell and Side Effects: Claim: NAC can have a sulfurous smell and can cause urine to smell similarly due to its sulfur content. Fact Check: NAC does contain sulfur and has a characteristic sulfurous smell. This is normal and not indicative of product quality. It can also cause a sulfur-like odor in urine when metabolized, which is a harmless side effect. The transcript provides accurate information based on current scientific understanding, with an emphasis on the nuanced effects of NAC in different medical scenarios. It rightly points out that individual responses can vary, stressing the importance of personalized medical advice from healthcare providers.

Hey Dr. A! It's Chris from Bastyr SD,.. I am a kind of gut guy, so, I always have the microbiome in the back of my mind. The healthy microbiome has a mucous layer that is protective to the endothelial lining... Can oral supplementation with N-A-C thin out and deplete the protective mucous lining in the gut?? I'm thinking of IBS, IBD and even diverticular disease patients.

thanks

NAC is way less toxic under every condition compared to “marinating “ cancer cells in sugar. How about a video on that doc? And in your presentation you imply that NAC will strengthen cancer in certain cases by… strengthening the dysfunctional mitochondria?????? You can’t have to both ways doc, either cancer is a disease of mitochondrial dysfunction or genes…

I’ve noticed I get anxiety and negative thought patterns pretty quick when I take anything with NAC. What kind of testing would I determine what my issues is with it and what type of doctor should I seek out for this?

What type of dose is what you call marinating?

Wow. Why haven't I found you before? You really know biochemistry and shared more about NAC than I ever knew. I started my son on L-cysteine after his pesticide poisoning in second grade. Both plasma and urine tests showed he was low in cystine and taurine, and he had become chemically sensitive. It reduced his symptoms by about 70%. We went on to learn more about detox. I've worked with many chemically sensitive/poisoned people and we've used L-cysteine or NAC for years. But I didn't realize all the complications that you described. I did know one person with cystinuria who could not take it. Thanks for the education. I'm an instant fan.

So if somebody has asthma or a little bit of sulfur or sulphate issue. Or do we cycle it like you said in your video

@Begeye-bh5ux I notice nothing taking it. But I have sulfa allergy though

There is a study that shows a correlation between NAC and arthritis. Normally, I would not give much on it because it is just a correlation and no causative effect was proven. But I also experienced joint pain several times while being on NAC with and without glycine. So now I am kind of worried if there is a causal effect, not just a correlation. My guess is that glynac should be dosed in a way to improve gutathione, but not more than necessary, making bloodwork a must to figure out the optimal dose to decrease the chance for side effects. Or maybe not take it at all.
