Description
- Acetaminophen is the leading cause of acute liver failure in developed countries, and even normal doses have been shown to stress the liver in otherwise healthy adults
- Tylenol PM combines acetaminophen with diphenhydramine, creating risks not only for liver damage but also for memory loss and dementia
- Long-term acetaminophen use in older adults is linked to gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, high blood pressure, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease
- The drug harms your body by depleting glutathione, your master antioxidant, and disrupting protective systems that safeguard your stomach, heart, and kidneys
- Safer pain relief strategies include natural options like curcumin, magnesium, and lifestyle practices, along with boosting glutathione levels through foods and, in emergencies, N-acetylcysteine (NAC)
