Swanson Milk Thistle, Dandelion and Yellow Dock, 120 Capsules, 1 Pack

Great liver detox!

I've been using these herbs plus Burdock Root for over 60 years for liver detox. I used to empty the capsules in a pan of water and drain it through a cheesecloth and drank it down! Well it wasn't quite that easy since it tastes like dirt...., so a little bit of honey goes a long way.

I have been taking this to help with fatty liver i was told by my dr. i had i have lost weight and been taking this a long with drinking Dandelion root tea and i do notice i feel better , to be honest im not sure what effects this is having on my body but i have had no reactions or anything so i figure what the heck , maybe one day i will get another scan done of my liver to see if it has gotten smaller but for now i can only gauge by how i feel and its better

I think I've reviewed a similar item before but here goes again. This item is a PROVEN LIVER PURIFIER!!! For example: I went to the emergency room a couple years ago (can't remember why) and had some blood work done. When the results came back the E.R. Doctor said I had a "fatty" liver and that my liver enzymes were through the roof (sky high). I asked him what could be done about it and he said "nothing" , once you have a fatty liver you can't "go back" and to never drink alcohol again or anything else like aspirin etc that harms the liver. I went home and did some research in a box of magazines an old friend gave me titled: "Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients". (tldp.com or org) (If you can find some of these, I highly advise you to read them!!!! Anyways, I found out that milk thistle extract (silybum marianum) will HEAL the liver! Silybum Marianum is also used for toxic mushroom poisoning in emergency rooms... It removes toxins from the liver and even heals hepatitis!! (not sure WHICH hepatitis, I don't have that). So, I started taking 1 gram (1000 milligrams) a day, and went to my doctor about a month later and had more blood work done. When the results came back, he said your blood looks fine... I told him about the E.R. doc telling me my liver enzymes were high just one month ago and he stated, "well, your liver looks great now"!!! He even compared the results from the E.R. and his results and was SHOCKED that it was possible. Being an A.M.A trained doctor, he still didn't want to believe it and any A.M.A. trained doctor you ask will flatly DENY this is possible! I AM LIVING PROOF THAT MILK THISTLE IN HIGH DOSES WORKS.!!!! Dennis Hopper and Wynona Judd (I think it was her) BOTH cured hepatitis with milk thistle!

I had initially gotten interested in these pills when I had first read on the Internet that according to traditional Chinese medicine, menstrual cramps may be due to a congested liver. And thus a liver cleanse or detox would extremely help in relieving menstrual pain. I had read a lot of comments from people who had tried milk thistle and had received relief from intense menstrual cramps. I also love that this product includes dandelion and yellow dock, which also help to clear toxins from the liver. So I gave these pills a try. I ate one capsule a day in the first month. And the following period was extremely better. Before taking the Milk Thistle, Dandelion & Yellow Dock capsules, my cramps were horrible. I would have to miss work on my first day. I would also experience nausea and vomiting and the pain was unbearable. However after taking these capsules daily, the cramps are much more manageable. Last month, I was able to bear the mild cramps without taking any over the counter medications and a hot water bottle on my lower abdomen was enough to abate the pain. I am extremely grateful that I tried these. I am continuing to use them, one tablet per day especially since they provided such relief for my cramps. I have also noticed that my skin looks more pink from its original yellowish shade - I guess the capsules are helping with circulation too. Please see the attached photos of what the bottle looks like - front and back - and how big each capsule is. This product also comes with instructions on how the capsules can be used.

Excellent product to help with liver health and maintenance.

Great deal!

I take milk thistle and dandelion root for antioxidants and liver support, and although this has some good things in it, and as with many combination supplements, you get a lot more for your $$$ if you buy the ingredients separately.
