N-Acetylcysteine para Post-Viral Fatigue
C Evidências Evidência limitada de estudos de pequena dimensão, mas existem alguns sinais positivos.Ongoing clinical trials are investigating NAC for long COVID and post-viral fatigue. NAC supplementation is associated with lower inflammation markers and may support glutathione replenishment in individuals with persistent oxidative stress following viral infection.
Conclusão
Ongoing clinical trials are investigating NAC for long COVID and post-viral fatigue. NAC supplementation is associated with lower inflammation markers and may support glutathione replenishment in individuals with persistent oxidative stress following viral infection.
