Still taking N-Acetyl Cysteine?

[smores]

@PureSilver @Leo24Rule I don't take it. I've started a personal challenge to take my amino acids daily via gelatin (Vital Proteins). It includes a high dosage of all of the essential and non-essential amino acids EXCEPT L-cysteine. Just reading through threads to see if I should add it and if so what dosage.

Just wanted to find out if anyone else is still taking it.

I currently take gelatin pills. So that's the same thing?

Thanks for sharing this, I was wondering if u need to add NAC to my list of "to buy" items but I realize I don't. I started taking gelatin supplements since July 11th. I don't know what to make of it yet but I will continue. I'm taking so many supplement now plus i take collagen as well, 2 tablespoons daily of 6600mgs.

@smores your avatar, is that your hair. Gosh it's lovely!

@Leo24Rule and @PureSilver My amino acids don't have l-cysteine and my multi vitamin only 100mcg. So I was trying to figure out if it's worth supplementing.

@PureSilver That's not my hair but it is my motivation!

Komaza suggested I take this as a result of my hair analysis. I haven't noticed anything magical from it.

I've read a lot on Swanson brand NAC and it seems pretty good as well.

I take Solgar gelatin it has 1680mg gelatin. I was looking into getting the spring valley one, it's more for less. Walmart has a good price on it while I paid $7.61 on eBay for the solgar brand that has 100 capsules

@Leo24Rule how do u like the spring valley brand gelatin?

@PureSilver I like the brand: easy to swallow, my nails are long & strong. Do you like your brand?
