Of course, Milk Thistle is no more a cure-all than any other herb. If you have any serious ailment involving the Liver, you obviously need further expert advice. But if you recognise any of the symptoms listed above, you will probably benefit from taking Milk Thistle. Either take it alone, or alongside any other treatment you may be having.

As with all herbs, it is probably best not to take Milk Thistle continuously. You could take it for three to four months, for example, then break for one to three months before resuming.

If you decide to try Milk Thistle  - or any other herbal supplement - make a brief note in a diary of how you feel each day or each week. Then you can see whether or not the herb is beneficial for you. It is very hard to remember how you felt several months ago; referring to notes you made at that time is extremely useful.


OUR RECOMMENDATION
'Liverish' symptoms can just creep up on you; keep an eye out for them (as listed above) and take your Milk Thistle!
