I've been using NAC for a couple of years. I was going to get a refill and noticed something which set off my "(((they are at it again))) alarm. I cannot now find a source on-line for NAC, but there are a lot of "NAD", "NAG" and a bunch with the usual phony "scientific names", such as "N-Acetyl Tyrosine", "Acetyl L-Carnitine", and so forth.
I checked Costco and the local Kroger where I found bottles of 1,000 NAC capsules before. No joy.
(((They))) are at it again.
Iherb and swansonvitamins and life extension foundation still sell it.
It’s Amazon and the big retailers that pulled it immediately after the fda said it was a “drug”. The manufacturers of NAC and the herbal stores have refused to stop producing and selling it.
I’ve stocked up just in case though. I originally thought everyone was stockpiling it until an article was posted here months ago.
They claim it’s a “drug” because it’s used in the hospital but so are other vitamins and otc drugs. The FDA conveniently found a handwritten “approved” in blue ink on an application for NAC from 1957 or 1967 during covid.
Thank you for sharing this information , patriot.
Thanks for the information. I just ordered 5 x 1,000 capsule bottles from Swansons. I appreciate your help Patriot.
No problem, glad I could help.
You can also buy glutathione if it gets completely banned, should work as good, it’s the byproduct of NAC and is supposedly. It’s more expensive but for covid etc I take nac and glutathione together.
