About N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC) and finding it

I use NAC every day because it helps thin my thick mucus. I was tested and don't have Cystic Fibrosis, but have had thick, sticky mucus all my life. Because of this, I also take guaifenesin every day as well.
I don't take a probiotic unless I am on antibiotics. When I was using them, my primary doc advised to use different brands and combinations each time, buy the locally so I can get the freshest ones. And buy just 30-60 days worth at a time. We have a local co-op that carries supplements in addition to healthy & local foods, so I get them there.

Hi, Sue.
Thank you! It sounds like you are in good hands with your care providers. I am still searching for that so this community is hugely important to me! I clear my throat A LOT and have felt for years like I have something stuck in it. Hard some times to tell if it's allergies or asthma or bronchiectasis or all of the above! Fortifying my body with supplements, etc. will be quite beneficial, I think. Thanks, again!
