Since I am doing orals again in many years would like to know if anyone had TUDCA experience.
I have read a lot about it so will try it but does it really help liver, bile etc. Worth taking?
what dosages are recommended?

UDCA/TUDCA is a bile salt that keeps bile flow in liver going when taking oral AAS. One of the mechanisms of oral AAS induced hepatotoxicity is "cholestasis" which means impaired bile flow through the liver which cause acute liver damage. This is why UDCA/TUDCA has a protective effect. It's actually been used since ancient times in Chinese medicine.
NAC bolsters the liver's natural anti-oxidant capacity by increasing endogenous gluthatione levels. A power natural anti-oxidant that gets depleted when the liver processes certain medications/toxins. It's used in the emergency room as a antidote for acetaminophen/tylenol overdose which depletes glutathione. It's know in this case as mucomyst.
TUDCA/NAC is the ideal liver health stack.
In your opinion, what would be the ideal doses of Tudca and NAc when on cycle versus non-cycle?
I have been using NAC for several years now. I even noticed my liver enzymes were not elevated after 4 weeks of using injectable SD. The main reason I use NAC is because I noticed that my asthma is significantly better when I use it at 1200 mg a day. In addition, I take Vitamin C with it and ALA too.
I've never used Tudca. I know it's legit from guys I know but there no reason for me to implement what's not broke.
The reason NAC is called "Mucomyst" in the hospital is because it loosens and thins out mucous.
BB,
What are you thoughts on it's supposed poor bioavailability?
