The latest study about antioxidants is terrifying. Scientists think they may boost cancer cells to spread faster.
Might want to consider to go easy with the NAC supplementation.
"Researcher Sean Morrison and his colleagues conducted experiments on mice that had been transplanted with skin cancer cells (melanoma) from human patients. They gave nothing to one group. To the other they gave doses of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) which is a common antioxidant that's used in nutritional and bodybuilding supplements and has been used as a treatment for patients with HIV/AIDS and in some children with certain genetic disorders.
The results were alarming: Those in the second group had markedly higher levels of cancer cells in their blood, grew more tumors and the tumors were larger and more widespread than in the second."

Sounds interesting , will search more about it.
there is a lot of research out there on it ... the cancer cells will use the anti oxidants to assist in the metastisis.... so if you have cancer docs will tell you to stay away from anti oxidant supps etc .... if you are healthy anti oxidants are great to have they assist in neutralizing free radicals
Wow, it really gets you on your toes
This is a waste of research funds.
it was already well known that anti oxidants will create issues if you already have cancer
Now I have something to think about, thank you , nice read!
MightyMatt812Good read but there needs to be more studies done these days and ages everything causes cancer every processed food contains chemicals that cause it
