Every medication, no matter how effective it may or may not be, involves introducing a number of foreign substances into your body. That should cause a wise person to avoid using any medication unless it is absolutely needed.

Tylenol is relatively safe, so long as it is taken strictly according to the instructions, but far too many people have gotten the idea that Tylenol is as harmless as candy. They blow off any cautions about strictly following maximum dosages and dosage timing, and casually pop Tylenol every time they have a minor ache or pain. But if not carefully controlled, use of Tylenol can cause great harm to your liver. We’ve got to stop treating common OTC drugs like Tylenol, Advil, aspirin, etc. like they’re completely harmless, because they’re not.

I’ve always been wary of this effect, so I will endure pain or discomfort unless and until I truly need to use something like Tylenol. As a result, my overall use of it is minimal. That is how we should approach all drugs.

As for vaccines, Shawn said that the recommendation to not take acetaminophen or other anti-inflammatories before a shot is to avoid blunting the immune response and has nothing to do with glutathione or fears of toxicity. Taking acetaminophen afterwards to manage symptoms is absolutely fine, she noted.


I’m just a retired medsurg RN, but this makes no sense to me. If taking tylenol before getting vaccinated has nothing to do with glutathione or fears of toxicity, then taking it afterwards should have the same effect or non-effects. The half life is 2 hours in adults, 3-4 hours in children and 7 hours in newborns. Half life means how long it takes for half the medicine to clear your system. Then it takes half that time to clear half of that, and so on.

"I just think it's so dangerous that these celebrities and non-healthcare professionals are saying things as the truth without real evidence or understanding of what they're saying"

I am no fan of celebrities telling other people how to live their lives. That being said, I think ordinary people might pay less attention to celebrities if the actual "experts" would tell us the Truth. But they don't. The "experts" lie and hide information. It's about the money. It's about the grants. The people who should inform us about things are too busy rushing to the bank to cash their checks. And so people listen to a Playboy Playmate like Jenny McCarthy. She may not be right, but she will actually tell you what she really thinks. And the "experts" don't do that.

glutathione is the rescue drug in Tylenol overdoses, which is a terrible way to go with rapid onset liver falure. Also occurs in standard doses of Tylenol mixed with alcohol. NAC, as the precursor to glutathione is infused intravenously when Tylenol od is confirmed with acetaminophen levels or probably with sufficient circumstantial evidence in ER. NAC has a very interesting history, was highly recommended by Peter Mccullough and others during COVID as a supplement ( very early on an article posted on FR from NY Post detailed a youndg man whose mom was dying from COVID having called his college chemistry prof who took a shot in the dark to recommend NAC to replenish glutathione—I went out to GNC that March Sunday afternoon at pucchased a bottle of glutathione, just in case, for $35, not knowing chemistry that NAC was essentially the same thing to the liver at about 1/3 the cost) . Of course NAC was one of the things Fauci and FDA tried to have taken off the market as part of their “no treatment “strategy ( It is used effectively off label for OCD, especially in autism). The manufacturers fought back, as it sis a supplement not a prescription drug. It had a clinicl trial in the 60’s for nobody seems to know what but failed, but revolutionized treatment of Tylenol OD sometime later, probably in the 90’s.

Do you remember in 2021 when the government was trying to ban it and Amazon in many places stop trying to sell it. It was really hard to get our hands on.

glutathione depletion is a very real thing:

glutathione is the substance necessary for converting the liver-toxic Stage One metabolite of acetaminophen into the non-toxic Stage Two metabolite, which is water soluble and therefore can be eliminated by the kidneys ...

a shortage of glutathione, say, due to taking too much acetaminophen or drinking alcohol simultaneously while taking acetaminophen, results in the liver-toxic stage one metabolite accumulating instead of being converted to the non-toxic form, resulting in liver destruction ...

the supplement NAC is the main precursor to glutathione, and in fact, the standard treatment for acute acetaminophen toxicity is IV N-acetylcysteine (NAC)

Do you take NAC regularly and is/ has (bern) your experience.

Do you have any opinion on NAD/ NAD+?
