Wink Milk Thistle and Chemotherapy

I am not sure I am putting these links in the right place, but since there has been several discussions about milk thistle from time to time I thought some of you might be interested in the results of studies done on milk thistle and chemotherapy.

1. From the National Cancer Insitute

2. From Science Daily
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...1215172325.htm
3. Annie Appleseed Project

4. Medscape Article

According to the article it helps protect the liver during chemotherapy and reduces the chances of problems with the liver enzymes during chemotherapy.
