Milk Thistle Question

[getbig212]

I have a lot of milk thistle, I have been off orals for close to 12 weeks now, but for the past 4-6 I have been taking 1-2g of milk thistle a day. If I can afford it, will my liver benefit from taking 2g a day or is that too much? Basically I want to know what's the max amount I should take to get the most out of it.

i m really not sure about the milk thistle. but the best product for liver protection is synthergine. which is highly recommended across the forum.
hope this helps ya

Milk thistle alone really doesnt do much for my liver enzymes while taking any aas. When it comes to protecting your organs i would get the best supps out there like synthergine, udca, tudca. I also add liv 52 to whatever else i choose to take, but all the liver supps i just listed are very good and the only way to go imo. I would never just rely on milk thistle alone to protect my liver but hey thats just me.

I use milk thistle. 0.5g/d seems to be enough.
It seems to be effective.

There several scientific papers about it...

I use LIV52 DS. It keeps my values in the low to normal range.
