They will be trying to ban Mullein leaf tea next. /s Thankfully it grows as a weed in Ohio and has much the same effect in breaking up thick mucus.
TPTB seem to be trying to remove it ( and other health supplements) from public access by calling it a medicine…already removed from order by compliant Amazon but you can get it from other online sources
True! I was about to post that Amazon had removed NAC, already, a couple of months ago. As has Puritan :(
Swanson Vitamins, Vitacost and iHerb still have good selections.
However, Double Wood has their own brand and a combo pack is a cheaper way to get it. Also, they've had decent sales in the past.
Vitamin Shoppe and GNC would likely have their own branded form, too, along with online shops of Swanson Vitamins and Vitacost.
I'm a big fan of necking. And I take NAC a lot too. Helps with alergies and sinuses.
