I noticed someone metioned supplementig milk thistle.

Milk thistle is great for liver but not reccomended for gilbert's, because it helps path 1 detoxification and with us who have gilbert's the path/fase 2 is compromised!

By promoting fase 1 detoxification it can even put unwanted pressure ond the fase 2 which is already impaired.

Here's what Shelley (from "ask shelley") has to say about it :

"People with Gilbert's need to take herbs that promote bile flow. Milk Thistle does not do this. Dandelion, coptis, artichoke, do. Vitamin A and E, lecithin, C, beta-carotene, EFAs and zinc will help the liver repair itself so that bile flow is no longer so impaired. The liver has amazing rejuvenation ability, so don't think your Gilbert's is a life-long sentence. Give the body the tools it needs and it will repair itself. "
