N-Acetyl Cysteine is NAC right?
Add milk thistle (silymarin) to that list and it sounds like the detox I take regularly.
Also I've read that the amino acids alanine and histidine make carnosine (L-carnosine). I started looking for source foods but sort of forgot. I understand the carnosine supplements are expensive. It helps break the bonds freeing the protein I believe.
A methyl donor is a substance capable of donating a methyl group ( CH3), such as methionine and betaine, etc. Betaine is tri methy glycine or TMG. It is derived from beets and is very inexpensive. TMG, NAC and Vitamin C are very powerful nutrients because tgey are capable if raising glutathione levels, probably through the process of methylation. Beets have shown the same process, along with AAKG and APL (special types of arginine). Glutathione is responsible for nitric oxide production and, most likely the rate at which we age and how much protection from toxins one has. The formula you mentioned has milk thistle probably because all these processes occur in the liver and milk thistle has shown to improve liver function. FYI, dessicated liver tablets are very powerful liver enhancer, as well and are less expensive. Many docs, I believe are incorrect, believe that we are too methylated. If that was true, we would not need pain meds or antiinflammatories because we would have very little inflammation and thus live a long disease free life, since, arguably, uncontrolled inflammation is what leads to all disease processes. I hope you find thid beneficial.
In Great Health,
