The first link just takes me to this forum???

Just thought I would post this info on NAC. Have no idea if it is true or not true, that is up to you to decide.

Secondly, an unexpectedly dangerous compound to avoid is N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a high-priced product heavily recommended by alternative medical doctors and other health practitioners. NAC is a form of cysteine often recommended as a more powerful form of the much-needed amino acid L-cysteine or in lieu of glutathione, an antioxidant that is rarely effective in supplement form.66 Although dozens of journal articles support its short-term use as immunity booster and detoxifier, evidence is mounting of potential long-term harm. The NAC form of cysteine conceivably can poison vitalethine, a vital component needed to activate humoral immunity.67-69

ONE paper on PubMed on vitalethine from 1994....and nothing since.

I wouldn't worry at this point about the validity of NAC interacting with it. If this compound were so special, we'd have it by now 20 yrs later to treat cancer.

There are a lot of special things the world does not hear about that are amazing.

Not hearing about something does not negate validity. Maybe it is due to no big money to be made.

Just my opinion. :)

And reading about it on Weston Price doesn't make it real either.
