It is a different compound! Precursor means that the other compound can be made from it in one or more biochemical steps, it does not mean it is the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really not sensible to assume two compounds with similar sounding names are the same compound. L-Cysteine is an amino acid and N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is a chemical relative with an entire extra carboxylic acid group (-COOH) in place of one of the hydrogen atoms (H) on the amine group. If you think that won't make a difference, try drinking hydrogen peroxide H2O2 instead of water H2O, as that is only different by one oxygen atom. What do you think the mechanism is for the so called L-Cysteine benefits ? I know NAC clears congestion by disassociating the disulfide bond in mucus.

Hangover telling you maybe not such a good idea to poison yourself with too much alcohol. This cure seems to let you feel everything is fine when it isn't Along lines of giving a drug so you can keep your hand on a hot stove burner. You may not feel the pain, but damage is being done Indeed. It's poisoning and mega dehydration at work... though I love the effect Aside from hair of dog (slow come down), have done well on carbon before and after... with lots of water.
