NAC: Unexpectedly cleared my skin and calmed my anxiety?
Started taking NAC for my sleep (heard it helps with that) but wow, I've noticed my skin is clearing up and my anxiety levels are way down. Anyone else experience side effects like this? Not complaining, just curious.
That's cool! I've been taking it for a while too, but mainly for the antioxidant benefits. Didn't notice skin changes, but it does seem to help with my mood. Maybe it's the glutathione boost? Heard that's good for skin too.
Yep, same here. I take it for work stress and brain fog. Definitely feels like it evens out my mood. And my skin is better, but I also started using a new moisturizer so can't blame it all on NAC lol.
Interesting. I'm on the paleo diet and take NAC for general health. I noticed my joint pain reduced, didn't pay attention to skin. But NAC is known to reduce inflammation, so maybe that helps with skin and anxiety? Sound plausible.
