Inosine experiences

I'm here, DIM... I'm Here!

High liver enzymes could be related to infection, toxins, and her liver's inability to cleanse itself. Most MSers have high liver enzymes, and don't even know it.

Milk thistle was the way I healed Jeff's high liver enzymes. 500 mg. supplement every day for one month with plenty of fresh water. His enzymes came down in a month's time. I still give him milk thistle one week out of every month, to continue to cleanse. Milk thistle has anti-inflammatory affects, as well. It really works!

i don't have any supporting numbers but i still think milk thistle is a good idea Smile

i was taking milk thistle blend for liver protection when i was just dxd in '06 and worried about the imminent effects of rebif...
but my baseline enzyme tests were okay and i've never had them re-tested coz i never ended up taking any rebif anyway.
i am finishing up this other non liver-related herbal blend right now (i have this rule not to mix herbal blends with each other because i know it's hard enough balancing the vitamins!) but certainly plan another round of milk thistle blend soon, i reckon it's time - missed 2007 altogether!

Just realised that Inosine from Source Naturals we all use has gluten/wheat in it's synthesis!
When I ordered 6 bottles I carefully read the ingredients and they didn't mention about gluten but this
Source Naturals Inosine is suitable for vegetarians. Contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, soy or wheat. Contains no sugar, starch, salt, preservatives, or artificial color, flavor or fragrance.

It's the second time I buy Source Naturals products and although they say the opposite they contain gluten, completely unreliable company in my humble opinion...

Yeah, Dimitris...
I have Source Naturals Inosine, and had read the wheat/gluten in bold letters, but the opposing info on the same label. Looks like the "suitable for vegetarians" label is generic for all their products, and the wheat/gluten labeling is specific to the inosine. Pretty lame. I've continued to use it, since I couldn't find another source, and Jeff isn't wheat/gluten intolerant.

Maybe make a complaint?? Maybe they could produce this product without the wheat and gluten.
