Hi Polar Bear,
> Have you considered using NAC?
Funny you should ask. It's in my queue for my next addition. However, before I add anything new, I want to give my current med/supplement/vitamin cocktail more time to make sure that it continues to prevent rapid cycling.
> Research looks very promising. Right up there with fish oils.
Yes. Very promising. I took some of the NAC studies with me to my most recent p-doc appointment. He was very interested, particularly due to the status of the people conducting the studies.
> I'm going to give it a try.
Good. Please post your results. I've read that it is important to drink 6 - 8 glasses of water per day to prevent cysteine renal stones. Also, I've read that Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Alpha-Lipoic Acid and Vitamin C should be taken with NAC. You may want to use Google Scholar and Pub Med to see if you can verify the benefit of these add-ons.
> Your right about the higher doses of fish oil, I've also researched about that too. Dark therapy, excellent thing to do in your situation. I also take Carlson's or Costco fish oil. I need to be more consistant with taking them. I ran out a couple months ago. Need to make a costco trip. So glad you are doing well.
> I remember you years ago on this board. :)
And, of course I know you, Polar Bear. Unfortunately my time constraints restrict my posting. However, I'm always lurking and looking over shoulders.
