Some of you have already read posts of mine about Liverite. It's a product made to detox your liver. They have a new product out called liverite Sports or something like that. It is specifically for (among other things) combating the effects of AS on the liver. They sell it at www.liverite.com IP: Logged |

LIVERTIE HAS BEEN OUT FOR OVER A YEAR, AND I'VE USED IT FOR THE DRINKING OCCASIONS. IT IS A GREAT HANGOVER MEDICINE,AND A GREAT LIVER PROTECTION. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR COMMENTS FROM THOSE WHO HAVE USED IT, HOW DOES IT COMPARE TO MILK THISTLE FOR LIVER PROTECTION? IP: Logged |

Not to burst you guys bubble, but there are NO medication, especially sold over the counter, that will help "detox" your liver! Asked a total of three docs about this and all three laughed in my face....just trying to help out here bros...don't get taken on bunk stuff.plus ruin your life on a false promise from someone trying to make a quick buck. JUST F.Y.I. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Benchmaster, You are 100% wrong! I have a family member with liver problems and have been over this stuff with liver specialists a million times. Products like Liverite and milk thistle lower liver values quickly. Many doctors will not say that they work as they have their own methods, many which are very poor. A large percentage of those with liver problems end up going with this type of product and have much better results. Your doctor is by no means a liver authority. IP: Logged |

Most doctors knowledge of herbal supplements is very limited, and they are not going to recommend something they obviously know nothing about. All I can say is that on four different occasions my liver enzymes were elevated and after taking 800mgs of milk thistle over a month period my enzymes were normal and have been ever since.

Guys you can be ignorant ( no flame intended) all that you want to be...i am just trying to tell you the facts and help with what i do know.... and i do know that Milk thistle and liverite are bunk! Sorry , but that is true! Your mind is powerful..if you believe that it works for you, then it may well do it..but it is the will of you mind and not the product... a placebo effect if you will.... good luck to all of you! ------------------ IP: Logged |

lexicon...i'm with you bro. I have relatives with liver problems also and I know this shit as well. Benchmaster....milk thistle does help...bottom line! It's actually one of the few herbs that is recognized as being directly beneficial to specific problems(ie. high liver counts) As for the liverite, a buddy of mine bought it on a goof once for those nights of hard drinking, as he swears he feels great the next day after a night of boozing if he takes it prior to drinking. I personally have never tried it, but I do have milk thistle in the vitiman cabinet. IP: Logged |

"Guys you can be ignorant ( no flame intended) all that you want to be...i am just trying to tell you the facts and help with what i do know...." BENCH, you "know" the facts based on the knowledge of 3 Dr's??? Most Dr's know dick about herbal and nutritional medicine, HELL!!, most Dr's will tell you that steroids will kill you! "and i do know that Milk thistle and liverite are bunk! Sorry , but that is true!" No, that is your opinion based on the knowledge of 3 M.D.'s. I have no knowledge of the efficacy of Liverite, but you need to look on Pubmed for abstracts on silymarin (Milk Thistle). IP: Logged |

I don't know about liverite because I've never heard of it before but as far as Milk thistle is concerned I do. It has been found in countless studies to lower liver values and protect the liver from damage. Milk thistle and evening primrose oil both are good help for the liver and I challenge anyone to refute this with scientific proof. By the way you only lose your credibility when you say things that everyone knows are not true. Not a flame , just a thought for the day. IP: Logged |

Benchmaster, In some ways I agree, but doc's do not study over the counter products, so how would they know Common sense on something. Take NIACIN for instance. It will dilate your veins when taken in twice the recommended dose( not what do you call that angeoplasty(SP). why would a doc want you to take a $10. bottle of niacin over the counter when he could charge your ins co $15,000 for and angeoplasty?

Glutathione is a chemical the body uses to eliminate certain toxins through the liver. Milk thistle contains Slymarin which acts as a glutathione sparer. I can locate the research articles on this if someone really wants to bust a nut over it (I believe there are actually sevaral in the journal of the american medical assocaition and the New England J of Medicine) IP: Logged |

you got it NOVICEJUICER! The silymarin in milk thisle helps to support glutathione production. Milk thisle has also been used by individuals to treat cirrosis. Sorry benchmaster I think we will stick to the milk thisle and have a healthy liver, just dont come crying when you have liver problems from AS. IP: Logged |

I am 100% sure that milk thistle helps lower liver values. Many people who had no success with medical treatment for bad livers swear by it. Liverite is also a very good product. The new "Sports" product by them is aimed directly at people like us. I think you would be crazy not to use it. Go for one of their package deals and use the basic product (Liverite) daily and use the sports type when using AS. Buy it through the web site as it's much cheaper than most stores. Also, I haven't seen the sports model at stores anyway. IP: Logged |
