Overview

N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is an amino acid supplement that can help raise antioxidants, decongest the lungs, and address acetaminophen overdoses. There is some mixed evidence on whether NAC can also address symptoms of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

Commentary

NAC tastes and smells like straight ass. It is made with sulfur, so opening a bottle of NAC can feel like releasing a mild stink bomb. Seriously, it’s like a whiff of Satan’s armpits and I prepare for the potential to vomit each time.
