Milk Thistle

Featured Replies

Does anyone know where to buy milk thistle tablets? I like drinking and a friend of mine introduced me to these when i lived in Nz as they are good for the liver if you drink alot. Any ideas to where to get these in BKK?

Just go to any Pharmacy. They come under the name Samarin 140.

Each tablet contains 140g of Silymarin.

Manufactured by Berlin Pharms.

This is about the best thing you can take if you are a pisshead. It actually helps generate new liver tissue.

Doctors recomend it to people on strong medication. Because the medication is heavy on the liver too.

Maintainence 2 a day.

Severe pisshead 4 a day.

I take a lot of vitamins. Was wondering if this affects the liver, putting extra load on the liver to filter them out. Would you recommend milk thistle tablets for someone who takes vitamins.

You don't need to take mega doses of vitamins. Mostly you will just pass all the vitamins you dont use up, in your pee.

Also mega doses can be harmful over prolonged periods.

What are you taking at the moment?

I would recommend as standard, a good multi-vitamin/multi mineral suppliment. Boot's do a good one.

You will need to take extra Vitamin-C. Taking 300-500mg/day of extra Vit-C will be plenty enough, considering you sweat a lot over there.

If you don't exercise, eat all the wrong things, drink etc, you ought to be taking Omega-3 oil everyday. This comes in various forms of fish oil capsules. This will help keep your colesterol level down.

There are many more things available over there really cheap. I was thinking about starting an ex-pat lifestyle health guide.

One more thing. Water!!!. Drink as much as you can. Make a habit of always carrying a bottle with you and get into the habit of sipping on it. The colder the better, as this will pass through you quicker dragging out toxins, and you won't feel bloated.

Milk Thistle is great for liver detox, but there's a school of thought that does not recommend regular use of milk thistle. One to two weeks every three to six months should be good. As for water, not everyone fare well with lots of water, as it can overhydrate your system. Too much fo anything can be bad. Balance balance balance...
