    Im surprised people use milk thistle over here

    There have been many other things proven to be much better

    rALA, Tylers, Liver 52, NAC, etc

    Ive yet to see more than 1 actuall study on MT that showed it beneficial, yes there are many out there but they are on rats that dont even tell the controls and some show the dosage needed to be very effective exceeds the lethal amount.
