Can NAC Help Reduce Alcohol Cravings?

from The Alcohol Reset by Cloud9 Hosted by Mike Hardenbrook & Cloud9

Struggling with alcohol cravings? It’s not just about willpower. There’s a biological reason why cutting back on alcohol feels so hard, and it has everything to do with how alcohol affects your brain chemistry and cravings. One supplement that’s been gaining attention? N-acetylcysteine (NAC). In this episode, Mike Hardenbrook dives into the latest research on NAC, including a 2024 clinical trial showing how NAC helped people with Alcohol Use Disorder naturally reduce their drinking. He breaks down how NAC works in the brain, how it helps rebalance the reward system, and why it may be a game-changer for those looking to drink less. Mike also shares how Dr. Terranella has seen NAC’s benefits firsthand in his practice and why Cloud9 includes NAC in its formulas to support people who want to take control of their drinking—without relying on willpower alone. 🎧 Tune in now to learn how NAC could make cutting back on alcohol easier.
