With all the stressors, toxins, and germs floating around in the air these days it’s no wonder our immune systems are on overdrive.
It’s one of the many reasons I recommend adding N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) to your daily routine.
NAC is an essential Amino acid and is a critical building block for the master antioxidant glutathione.
That’s why NAC is so valuable. It’s essential to:
- Your immune system
- Your liver health and detoxification functions
- Can reduce the side effects of OTC painkillers
- May help reduce the symptoms of respiratory issues by loosening the mucus in your air pathways
- Boost brain health by protecting your neurotransmitters.
And so much more.
This powerful amino acid is one of the most effective ways to reduce the symptoms of the cold or flu and can even help shorten the length of time you’re under the weather*
Join us LIVE on Tuesday night at 6PM Central as we take a deep dive into this amazing amino acid!

I've already heard about 80% of what you said, but from many many videos. This was by far the most comprehensive lesson on NAC. Well done sir!

6 weeks after starting NAC, I no longer use decongestants or allergy meds. I take it with glycine.

Dr. Osborne I have been taking your NAC supplement for about a year especially during cold and virus seasons and it helps with clearing out my lungs and mucus and have less episodes of catching flu. Thank you for all you do for people.

Wow what a fantastic lecture. I am 72 I just had a benign 11cm cystf removed from rt ovary. I do take NAC. The surgeon took a photo of my ,liver and said i had a beautiful liver Imagine. My friend who was with me during surgery told him that i take care of myself. I am diabetic off of insulin,in for several years. Have been on keto diet several year. Your discussion on pcos was interesting to me. You are a physician worth listening to. Thank you sir.

Dr O, I learned so many things about NAC other than it being an anti mucolytic from your lecture. Sperm motility, glutathione precursor, etc. Thank you for giving knowledge. You are much appreciated.

I didn’t know NAC helps to detoxify toxic metals. Thanks for sharing

34:02 problem is that they can grain feed a cow for months, then give him a grass diet for 1month and it magically becomes a Grass-fed cow.

Hi... A friend of mine was diagnosed with vitiligo some years aback and i was told about NAC.. After taking the NAC tablets for about 2 weeks the patches of skin started to clear up. Today she had no vitiligo.The thing is the nurse had told her (my friend) that there isn't any cure for vitiligo. I'm glad I'm hearing of more benifits of NAC. GREAT VIDEO.

I am so glad I found out about NAC. It has really helped my COPD.
-
I absolutely don't know how to show appreciation for men like you

Thank you for sharing what over the counter, Tylenol, can do to the body. I just went to a Orthopedic surgeon for a consultation for hip replacement. He said I could stay on over the counter anti inflammatory drugs for 2-3 years with no harm. He just does not know and I did not want to argue. Thanks for sharing truth. Beverly Reid

My husband and I took NAC to get over Long Covid.
-
NAC and vitamin D has helped me get through the flu.
-
I've been taking NAC for years. Love to hear the indepth analysis of the positive benefits! By the way, don't ever forget that when C19 was at its worst, the FDA recommended not to use NAC right after it was shown to dramatically help prevent major symptoms after contracting C19. Amazon actually stopped selling NAC for about 18 months due to this. Something very diabolical was going on there.
-
The education we are getting from you is beyond measure. THANK YOU !!! I found your website & ordered GI SOOTH & MELATONIN and the next on my list will be NAC. Dr. OSBOURNE you are amazing and we love you!❤❤
-
During Covid Amazon removed all supplements of NAC. I had to find it from other companies to get it. It’s back now, post Covid. What does that tell you?
-
Thank you for explaining the connection between NAC and glutathione production.
-
Dr. Osbourne; thank you for all of your hardwork! You have changed and saved my life and my future babies based on what I have learned about NAC and gluthatione! Total game changer. I was tested and I am 51% deficient in gluthatione after major surgery! I insisted on the test. I can’t play around. I had 126 fibroids removed!
