Those things should do something for healthspan, and perhaps lifespan too. But to feel younger, you need regular strength training. That and perhaps supplements for bone and joint health is my advice. I actually have better joint health now, at age 76, than I had when younger. This is my supplements aimed at skin, joints, tendons, facia and bones: Magnesium (up to 420 mg for men. But not so much that it upsets the intestines. Food is better, of course, but rather deficient nowadays.) Vitamin D and K2 (5000 IU resp 200 ug of MK7) Collagen 12 -- 15 g and some vitamin C Boron 3 .. 6 mg I don't feel 20 myself, but I do move well!

Saying "GlyNAC" is not a professional way (even though some people do), as these are two different compounds. Refer to it "glycine and NAC" if they were taken together in the studies. Just because I take Omega-3 with inositol, does not mean I should call it Omegsitol. Also what noone mentions on KZbin is the fact that taking collagen with NAC will create the same effects as glycine with NAC (just need to take 4 times as much collagen as glycine) + the skin and bone health benefits of collagen.

@larsnystrom66985 ай бұрын
The research used about 7 - 8 g of each NAC and glycine (100 mg / kg bodyweight). They didn't try smaller dosage. My guess is that half would be effective too. Glycine is used for so much more than just building glutathion, such as building collagen, so 12 g might actually be needed. And there's no downside to taking that much. 2 g of NAC isn't much, so it will be rate limiting for your glutathion production. It might be too little for some with very diminished production, but good enough if you aren't that deprived. I see another commenter saying it's too much. I would say it might be just right. The downside to taking too much NAC might be if it irritates the bowel. It does have an effect on the mucus there. But I see very little mentioned about that. So it might not be a serious problem. Just something to be aware of. The effect NAC has of making the mucus in the lungs more fluid should be only beneficial though.

Is it possible that it's coming from stress on the nervous system (like a disc pressure). I had it since end of 2015 and it most likely came from physical stress (added to the emotional stress I had plenty of). The flare ups were so painful that sometimes I would pass out. I had some improvements when I did EMT excercises (with electrodes). I did EMT for a year and regular strength training excercises and due to illness got out of a stressful job. Over time it became less painful. But to really heal it you have to address the root cause and that is heal the physical/emotional pain(body) in the nervous system. It will take time but it is possible. Mine is almost gone. Have you tried dry needling, Ilan Lev Method, chiropractic therapy or some other type of somatic practice or therapy? And combine it with your breath (become aware/mindful) of your breath (and body) because that helps regulate the nervous system and helps the healing process. Neil Harrigan or Heriman (I forget his name) has some excellent videos, I think one is called the jaw pelvis connection.
