Slowly recovering from my 3rd booster. After 2 months my painful symptoms are easing took NAC and symptoms were not there after 2 weeks of taking it. Still dealing with sleep issues so I’m looking for solutions on that.
I'm not sure that this is as clearly understood as we would like! It can change at different times, so sometimes coming back to it and trying it again at a later time after other health issues have been addressed can be helpful.
Can brain inflammation be the reason why I now can’t read or watch tv without severe pain, dizziness and possible seizure like episodes? Neurologist, doctors, eye specialist all say I’m fine. But I can’t watch a movie with my wife, 😢
Have you had covid by any chance? I have been off balance and dizzy with a sensation that my brain is buzzing or vibrating. I had covid last October (2022) and have been very unwell since. I have been referred by my GP at my 3rd request, to a Post Covid Team as this is so debilitating and depressing...no one as yet can determine what is wrong with me...I'm sincerely hoping that someone will figure this out. I have been taking ginger 3 times a day...2-3 pieces x 3 doses, crystallised ginger cubes. It is helping a bit, perhaps if you haven't tried it, you could give it a whirl.
@@CelticSpirit7 I did get Covid symptoms but didn’t go test. My issues started before Covid. Have you had a metabolic panel? To check for nutritional deficiencies? If not do that, check B1, D, check for leaky gut, do you have mercury fillings? I do take ginger, I cook with it also. I have several nutria so deficiencies, including D, B12, A, some kidney issues, low HDL cholesterol ect. I’m supplementing and feeling a little better except for the head issues.
My husband had those same problems. Due to COVID he had inflammation on his cerebellum. Make them give you a MRI and PET scan . My husband was on steroids and also I made him blueberry smoothies to get rid of the inflammation. I also found out he was deficient in B-12 vitamins. Look us the nutritious value of B-12 vitamins and blueberries and celery juice
@@TinaSelftalk blessings for your response, your husband couldn’t watch tv or read? I had mri and I think they are part of the reason I’m sick due, I felt burnt out after them, like my brain was fried. I am severely deficient in B12 and others. I will add blueberries and celery, do you have a brand of b12 that is clean of additives and fillers? Blessings.
I have this, as part of my cfs.. it’s a nightmare. Hoping NAC will help with glycine (although I’ve tried for 18 months to get to the bottom of my body issues - undermethylating and b6 problems, high liver enzymes, low gaba, high inflammatory markers… on and on it goes)… Have hope tho 🙏🏼
Just started taking NAC… and I’m wondering if I should be careful to NOT add other supplements at the same time…? (In order to gauge its effect(s)/effectiveness?) Or, is it perfectly safe to take in addition to most supplements… as long as I remain curious about my overall response?
It is very safe in its mechanism (though that just changed with the FDA making it prescription only) and one that you won't necessarily feel an immediate effect from. It does depend on your overall strategy for supplements and whether starting out, you are one that wants to take everything to get better as soon as possible and then back to see what is it that is actually helpful for you, or if you like to start slow from the beginning. Very safe though in that it is boosting your liver's own natural detoxification system!
I've read on a couple websites that taking it in an enteric capsule to help it pass the stomach better because alot of it will be destroyed before being absorbed. Any information further on this from anyone else? I will eventually have a chance to look into it further but thought someone may've heard more than just that about it.
Autism isn't an 'issue.'. It's poorly understood. Learn about autism from autistic adults & you will find better ways to help yp than the harmful, outdated ideas that unfortunately hang around. The 'issues' aren't autism but lack of understanding from a neuronormative society which is a mess.
@@Talentedtadpole I think I understand that you are not appreciating the characterization of issues. However this does affect me and my children so it's not an issue may be in the term that you were thinking but it is an issue as it does affect me and my family.

As a parent of children with processing issues, however you define it, I am always trying to learn more how to help them at a core State physically to be in the best shape they can be holistically so we can deal with the other challenges without worrying about core health issues.

Thank you for your time explaining NAC. I take it and now I know why 😊
You always have such interesting information! Thank you 🙏
dr can ear ringing cause brain inflamation

You didn’t learn from the first two🤦🏽♂️
@@dsandman272 didn’t notice any obvious symptoms and media hid anything about vaccine injuries
I went to a nutritionist and she recommended it to help with brain repair after my stroke
How did it go?
Did it help?
Can you take NAC and liposomal glutathione daily (either at the same time or spaced out through the day)?
MTHFR here, does this interfere with NAC?
Thank You so much Dr. Apigian. Any recommendations on dosing in a person with normal renal and hepatic function?
Book an appointment with our Biology of Trauma professionals to guide you. www.traumahealingaccelerated.com/provider-directory/
Isn't NAC only useful if you're already low in cysteine ??
Should I take NAC in capsule or liquid form?
Hi Dr Aimie.
I'd like to know why some people feel bad on NAC?
I'm not sure that this is as clearly understood as we would like! It can change at different times, so sometimes coming back to it and trying it again at a later time after other health issues have been addressed can be helpful.

Do you recommend NAC for removing excess copper from brain or tissues ?! Greatly appreciated 🙏
@@moniryousefian8782 you need to work on building cerloplasmin to make unbound copper bound to its carrier protein 👍🏼

Liposomal NAC "if available" should make it past the stomach in intact and have max absorption.

Would it be good for hashimoto thyroiditis please

Hi Dr,
I have learned that NAC deplete Zinc.
Must we supplement with Zinc ?
and if you take zinc, you need copper. The magical web of our biology! You pull one string and it pulls ten others.
doesnt high doses of NAC cause liver(or kidney) toxicity?
Can you take it when you have sleeping pills? Ambien
Sorry, I can't really hear what you're saying you're using...! 🇸🇪
