Somebody (I think MisterWhyAreYouSoDumb) mentioned something about how NAC is superior to Milk Thistle for keeping the liver health

I want to dig up some research on that but could not find anything. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

What they were answering

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb

I was referring specifically to protection from alcohol. Milk thistle was about the same effectiveness as vitamin C at protecting from alcohol damage. That's why I say NAC is better in that instance. However, NAC needs to be taken before you start drinking, or it can actually cause MORE damage from alcohol. So timing is crucial. Milk thistle is good for protecting the liver from other things, though. One size doesn't fit all in that regard. It's just not as strong as many people think.

⚠️ NEW PRODUCT ALERT | High Potency Milk Thistle Capsules | 200mg of Silymarins from Silybum marianum ⚠️

Replying to iwantmyownname · If you mean percentage of silymarins, you get roughly 40% silymarins in the regular milk thistle powders, (4:1) which comes out at 100mg~ for a 250mg dose This gives double that 2…

Also, keep in mind that every single other milk thistle product we tested on the market failed for label claims. They were all universally lower in silymarins than they claimed. Ours is 100% validated at 200mg/capsule wi
