What are the pros and cons of NAC? I read some negative reports about it lately.
Cons ~ Can't find any unless you're Allergic ~ or try to Inhale it ~ Why would you want to Inhale it.
Now if it's used as a Prescription Medication (extremely large doses), it can cause Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea.
It's used to Counteract - Acetaminophen (Tylenol) Poisoning, and Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
Pros ~ It's a Precursor to Glutathione, the most Powerful Antioxidant in our Bodies.
It Helps to Improve Liver & Kidney Function by Clearing Toxins from our Blood Stream.
It Helps to Improve Immune Response by Fighting Off an Infection before it begins (This is Proven In Scientific Studies).
It Helps to Improve Respiratory Function by Breaking the Disulfide Bonds in Mucus in the Lungs, allowing it to be Coughed Up.
It is used in the Treatment of Bronchitis & Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease & getting rid of that Nasty Cough.
It Helps with Cognitive Function by Ushering Toxins & Chemicals away from the Brain.
And Last but not Least, why we as Athlete's should be Supplementing with it (if I didn't convince you yet).
When we Workout, we release Harmful Waste Products into our System.
NAC gets Rid of those Free Radicals that buildup.
And by doing so, will Improve your Recovery, give you More Stamina, and Help to Improve Muscle Gains............................ JP
P.S.
NAC performs best when it the Presence of Other Antioxidants & Nutrients.
Such as - Acetyl-Glutathione - Piperine - CoQ10 - Omega 3's.
