Took NAC today

@ursala7 I'm skeptical - based on the amount of purification required to convert feathers to NAC, I doubt many allergens typically associated with a feather allergy make it into the finished product.

Histamine reactions are common with NAC, but I cannot find any literature that attributes this to the origin in feathers.

You could try contacting NOW or Pure Encapsulations directly to ask what they use.

@sueinmn Well if I decide (after my pulmonologist appointment) that I want to try NAC again, I will be checking into better brands as you suggest, and see if I can get intfo from them.
Thank you!
