    I dont think milk thistle does very much. There are a few studies which show it has weak activity in helping but bodybuilders commit the cardinal sin .... NONE OF THESE STUDIES WAS DONE WHEN RUNNING HEPATOTOXIC STUBSTANCES. I don't think milk thistle would do much when running toxic substances.

    Use ALA. I would use 6000 mg ED.

    I suggested 6000 mg ALA and not 600 mg ALA because the studies I have seen used for anti-ox benefits required 100 mg / kg of bodyweight.

    What does ALA stand for?

    What does ALA stand for? How much is it? Is it legal? Where can I find it?
