However, because NAC contains sulfur, it can sometimes have a distinct odor (often described as smelling like eggs), and some people may experience mild digestive upset or nausea if taken in very high doses

An older study documented the positive effects of intravenous glutathione on symptoms such as tremors and stiffness
