NAC from nootropics depot does not smell like sulfur and the effects seem to have given out after a few days. For those who use NAC successfully, where do you source it?

The stronger the sulfur smell, the more oxidized the NAC has become. That smell is H2S, or hydrogen sulphide. That is created when it's exposed to oxygen, and the SH grouping on the end of the NAC molecule gets ripped off due to oxidation. We specifically handle our NAC in such a way to expose it to as little oxygen as we can, and store it with oxygen absorbing packs in double-sealed containers away from light and heat. We also use PETE jars, which are very good at protecting from oxygen permeation in comparison to other plastics like HDPE or PP. If you were to buy pharma brand Fluimucil, it woudl come in blister packs and have no smell as well.
