The case for supplements and liver support
Being an alternative and shall I say complimentary type nutritionist I stand by both sides when either results, effectiveness, evidence based research, longevity, minimal side effects, and personal experience have won me over. And you must know this about me, I’m hard to win over. That’s why you’ll read my posts talking about the classics when it comes to a lot of supplements. As well as not jumping on every fad which comes around touting they are “the” best. But having said that, I’m open to new.
I love taking liver support supplements, eating for my liver and drinking fresh juices for my liver. I’ve given you a few hints here at times to juice fresh vegetables, drink lemon and water, eat healthy fats such as fish, flax and borage, do exercise to sweat through your largest organ of your body…your skin just to get you started.
Now, what if you’d like to compliment your healthy driven lifestyle with some supportive supplements? Do you want to know my fav’s, read on. Numero uno would have to be milk thistle herb. So, so much research, long usage and safe usage are associated with this herb which as been known to be very protective of our liver. See within these herbs are flavnoids and chemical isomers which gives the power behind the herb to do it’s job. Silymarin is the primary group within milk thistle if you want to know the name.
Oh, remember to take your antioxidants, milk thistle and eat green this coming holiday. More to come on that thought tomorrow. I’m off to juice my veggies!!!
