I take "Healthspan" (on the web) milk thistle tablets which contain Silymarin & artichoke tablets which contain Cynarin. I have liquid tincture of milk thistle from "Neal`s Yard Remedies" London WC2H 9DH. These are good for the liver & the bowel.

Wouldn't it be best to cut down on the alcohol if you think you need these tablets for your liver????

i take 2 holland and barrett milk thistle capsules everyday cos i drink too much! im not sure how strong they are or how strong others may be (im at work so cant check) but i do know with garlic capsules my h + b ones are 1000mg compared to others which are only 4mg vast difference so do check the labels.

artichoke extract is also very good for your liver, i used to take a couple before when i went out, and a couple when i got in, no hangovers.. also got bored of it so just took them daily...worked very well

my boss also took milkthistle, as he had to go to lots of works dinners and receptions and swore by it...

The milk thistle & artichoke are also alternative remedies for those of us unfortunate to have bowel & liver cancer.

In my young drinking days, it was well known to drink milk to line your stomach, before you went on a nights drinking, must be better than buying all these pills and potions
