Mixing NAC gummies with my morning coffee?
Hey all, I just started taking NAC gummies for immune support. I usually have a big cup of black coffee first thing. Anyone know if it's safe to take them together? I heard NAC can interact with stuff. Don't wanna mess up my morning buzz lol.
I take NAC gummies post-workout with my protein shake, no issues. Coffee should be fine, but I've read NAC can deplete copper or zinc over time. Maybe space them out an hour? Not a doc tho.
As a caffeine addict, I've done this combo. No bad effects for me, but NAC might make coffee feel stronger? Or placebo. I'd say go for it, just listen to your body. Btw, are you taking the NOW brand?
Thanks y'all! Yeah, it's the Nature's Bounty ones. I'll try taking the gummy with breakfast and coffee an hour later. ZenZoe, what do you mean by 'stronger'? Like more jitters?
NAC is an antioxidant, maybe it alters caffeine metabolism? If you get jittery, try decaf or half-caff. Stay hydrated fam.
