My dad's best friend in Taiwan, a famous (part-time) Chinese Sinseh and an acupuncturist, (Uncle Martin, who is a successful entrepreneur), you have to book a few weeks appointment in advance just to see him in a Taiwan hospital, chinese medicine division), recommended us to take GNC Milk Thistle for better liver function, generally better health lar. The most important organ to take care of is the liver, if the liver breaks down, the rest of the organs will follow too, I heard.
Me and my hubby is a late night owl. We normally go to sleep earliest at 2am, which is bad for our liver, since liver's function is at its peak at 2am while you are in deep deep sleep. Mind you, Bad liver is One of the main reason of infertility. So you have got to sleep early to get pregnant.... yayaya, I know I know, that is what my uncle Martin said each time he sees us.
Back to Milk Thistle. According to him, he has research and taken various milk thistle tablets, capsules in the market for liver function for the past few years. However, he (oh ya, he is also one of the advisor for one of top medicine product manufacturer in Taiwan) found that the GNC brand Milk Thistle works the best.
Another tip from him, before going for a boost, (wine / beer / alcohol appointment / party), take 1-2 capsules of milk thistle can last you through the night (only a few hours) without passing out. Don't know whether is true or not coz I have never tried it.
Not cheap. RM146.90 for 1 bottle of 100 capsules. Each capsules contain 200mg of Milk Thistle Seed Extract. Averagely, RM1.469 per capsule. GNC Milk Thistle currently contain the highest Milk Thistle Seed Extract on each capsule in the market. Well worth the $$.
How to take it??
For those who has mouth ulcer problem like me, night owls, drink alcohol all the time, has liver problem, or have sleep problems, try to take 2 capsules before sleep.
For general well being, try to take 1 capsule before sleep.
Better sleep condition will follow.
Alternatively, take 1 capsule in the morning, and you will feel energetic for the whole day., even you have only a few hours sleep. (My hubby's comment).
Oh, by the way, remove the vegetable capsule and just pour the extract into your mouth, wash down with plain water. Be careful from choking on the powder.
