Re: Milk thistle

Hmmm. Glad you folks commented. Just added a bunch of newer abstracts to this. Looks like Steph was on to something. What brand did you use? The Health day article is still significant in that it was a human trial demonstrating it was helpful/complimentary during a conventional therapy. Research may be more advanced in prostate cancer. But the mechanisms discussed don't seem PCa specific. It looks like it has shown efficacy in many cancers, with many mechanisms identified. Pretty good for something known to actually reduce toxicity. The CD44 (cancer stem cell) abstract sure looks fundamental. As mentioned, perhaps some med interactions possible...blood thinners and BP meds look questionable. And looks like different versions may be more "bioavailable". Milk thistle salad anyone?
