NAC has a lot going for it.
Rather than add to forum clutter, I am going to add onto this thread of Imad's if he doesn't mind. I have been going through my notes lately searching for promising leads. N-Acetyl Cysteine has a lot going for it. I have been using it for two weeks and it has greatly helped with weakness and fatigue and seems to be lowering my med requirement even in this heat.
If anyone has experience with this one, please feel free to post. I am going to add a series of references in the next few days in no particular order. I hope some of it helps.
