I have never heard of drinking milk thistle, although the herbal capsules active ingredient (SILYMARIN) has been shown to regenerate damaged liver cells- even in cirrhotic(sp.) livers. ------------------ IP: Logged |

E2, you should post that whole article, it is good info and will explain things in greater detail. I think I have it SOMEWHERE .... When I'm using an oral I'll take the Milk T, N-acetyl cysteine, all the oils (this you need to do for the whole cycle anyway) and extra Vitamin E. And of course Glute.... Late Lobo p.s.

E2 has listed all the things you can take. but water in large amounts is key. try hot water with lemon in it before bed. this may sound strange but after your cycle is over and your not taking any pills...1 small alcoholic drink a day will actually not be enough to destry the cells in the liver but promote tissue regeneration. look it up, sounds odd but its true, just dont think you can go out and get pissed while on juice every night and think"hey, i feel great" you wont feel so great when your piss looks like cherry koolaid. ^_^ styles IP: Logged |

The truth is, all oral anabolic steroids that are 17-alpha alkylated (17-AA) do have some potential for liver toxicity, especially with higher doses, so your doctor should monitor liver function tests. Oral 17-AA steroids also can affect blood cholesterol in ways that may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Specifically, they raise LDL cholesterol, and lower HDL cholesterol. To reduce this risk somewhat, people who use oral steroids should consider taking 400 to 800 IU of Vitamin E and 1000 to 2000 mg of Vitamin C with every meal, as taking these vitamins reduces the potential for cholesterol to oxidize. The oxidation of cholesterol promotes atherosclerosis (plaque formation in the arteries). Also, people who use oral 17-AA steroids should take any of several dietary supplements that help protect the liver. One of the best of these supplements is the herb called silymarin (milk thistle) as a standardized extract. Standardized silymarin should be purchased from a health food store to get the best quality, and good brands include Enzymatic Therapy, and Jarrow. Protecting the Liver Standardized silymarin160 mg + 3x/day Weight-Lifting To optimize the anabolic effect of steroid it is important to lift heavy weights for about an hour 3 to 4 times per week and eat a high protein diet.

WARLOBO I could not agree more accept I would up the FLAX OIL to two table spoons a day- no one gets enough omega threes in their diet unless you live off of north atlanic fatty fish. just my two cents BTW- flax is oil is great for the skin- the problem with caps is that they are alot more likely to be rancid than the fresh bottled oil- which is why caps make some people break out. A side benefit of Omega 3 is that they are weak mitochodrial uncouplers so they actually increase your metabolism. ------------------ IP: Logged |
