milk thistle

[flexed1]

Bought Natures bounty brand in grocery store. 1000 mg in each tab of silybum marianum. Have never taken this before and am taking 1 pill daily. Is this dose right?

my liver was very inflamed during my last hospital stay and I thought this may help. I am on nothing and the docs have no idea what caused it ( not hep a,b, or c) but thought I would be proactive.

I use the same brand/dose, but I haven't had any previous liver issues. Seems to work fine.

just an interesting note, i found this a few days ago....
studies do suggest that silymarin (milk thistle ) also has notable anti-inflammatory properties (inhibiting prostaglandin biosynthesis) which we know through recent studies is a trait that interferes with the protein synthesis response to resistance exercise. This may indicate the need to take somewhat of a "use if necessary" position, at least if absolute maximum muscle growth is the primary focus of your cycle.
