Hi Folks,

OK, I have now started taking Milk Thistle and I have liver function tests (LFTs) scheduled for next Monday.

I also managed to find the following, which I found interesting:

I've been taking milk thistle since about 1993, my internist recommended it when I was diagnosed with hep c. I take 2, 1000 mg softgels a day, it is a 4:1 extract, so a very potent formula. I also started Liv.52 about 2 months ago for extra insurance. After I was cured, yes, 'cured' of hep c (although not until 2001) my liver function tests come back really great. I will never stop taking my milk thistle!
