What is the best supplement for liver toxicity protection?

ad

Just wanted some input from other members on what they are using. Personally, I have been using Milk Thistle. A very high quality grade.

Here's another mention for UDCA.
If you google it you'll find that it's what doctors prescribe to treat bland cholestasis, the condition that 17aa oral steroids cause. It's also shown to prevent the condition to a degree.
I have some pure UDCA powder from a research chem site. (30 grams for about $40)
I bought it last year before using SDrol to use on that single compound cycle. I bought more recently in anticipation of using Anadrol.
If mention the website from which I ordered it but I'm new enough here to
Not know whether that's against the rules.
If anyone wants the info, PM me. If it's cool to pi st it into this comment, and others find the info useful, I will do so.
I don't trust any of the herbal or natural remedies, or the capsules etc peddled by the online supplement shops because I've researched the subject enough to find that the ingredients are either not supported by studies, under-dosed or lacking in purity.

Hey guys,
I was just doing some research and came accross a product called Cycle Support. Has anybody used it? It's sapose to help with liver toxicity, blood pressure, immune, and other sides.

I take massive amounts of milk thistle when taking orals or going out for a rare weekend of boozin it up! Normally I take around 4,000 mg's (extract) daily and bump it up to 8,000 mg's on the other mentioned occasions. I was thinking about gettin some organ shield this time around and keepin the thistle at 4,000 mg's. But on a more natural approach, I've read on several different health sites that eating lots of onions and drinking tea is good to assist with whatever liver supps we take. I believe nothing much will work to well unless we drink lot's of water. Water is king for flushing out the body!

Lagosa...or silymarin. Silymarin is the main active ingredient in milk thistle. Silymarin,acts on free radicals in the liver cells making them nontoxic compounds. But this product I do believe must be prescribed by a doctor.

Liv52 is a bunch of roots and herbs that aren't actually proven.

TUDCA is the only liver supplement out there that will prevent cholestasis of the liver. It will actually increase the effectiveness of orals significantly because of this, it will increase the effectiveness of any anabolic but orals see a bigger benefit because of how they pass through the body.

Great list. I would add dessicated liver tablets. Chinese Mushrooms: Reishi, cordecyps, shiitake and Maitake. Check out fungi perfecti dot com. They have quality mushroom tinctures/capsules.

Go for TUDCA, bro. It's a pharmaceutical grade liver detoxifier. It's miles ahead of anything else, but it is a bit hard to find at times.

Tudca is good. Essentiale forte is awesome. Liv 52 is a tried and true liver supp too
