Tim Guilford (who, evidently, is now part of the Wellness Pharmacy

gang) put me on 2g/day of NAC in 2000 -- well before glutathione was

understood as having anything to do with anything, for pretty much

the same reason.

I noticed right away that it worked much like Singulair to calm my

allergy reactions -- the biggest issue I was having at the time. I

was still pretty sick, and it did make me feel some better. Not as

much as getting on thyroid would two years later; but at the time, it

was a considerable step in the right direction.
