Hi Verne,
thanks for the caution, i just started taking Milk Thistle, and i have a tendency to overdo everything, so caution for me is definetly in order. i have read some very interesting things about Milk Thistle lately, i am a recovering alcoholic, and although my liver enzymes are back to normal, i read that every alcoholic has some degree of fatty liver, even if it doesn't show in an enzyme count, so i am taking Silymarin with the hope of protecting future damage
plus i have read that it is a great anti-oxidant, plus has recently shown to block uvb sun damage, and since i tan in the summer, this could be an added bonus. i hope you do well...john
