if anyone remembers a while back, i was looking for something to help me with the cravings associated with quitting coke.
someone suggested kava kava, and that suggestion was very helpful to me -- it made coming down from coke a lot less hellish, but it didn't curb the desire to use.
i've been using NAC for a little over a week at the suggestion of a naturopath. i would like to let you know first hand that it works.
it seems that it is best to take at night before bed with a glass of juice. i have had to increase my intake of vitamin C to combat the depletion associated with taking this amino acid, but that is a small price to pay for the improvements i have noticed since taking it.
my breathing has improved, my cravings are gone, and sicknesses that i associate with the drug have all but disappeared.
i am extremely skeptical about anything people say is "helpful" but i have personal evidence of the benefits right here in front of me.
