Dear @gvit,
Great question - milk thistle is promoted a lot by many supplement agencies, but there is not much evidence that it helps at all. Please see the following links where we and the hep B foundation have discussed this previously:
- Deciding when to start treatment - #116 by Joan_Block
- https://www.hepb.org/blog/silymarin-milk-thistle-helpful-managing-hepatitis-b-d/
- Lifestyle changes, nutrition, and supplements for hep b - #17 by NeptuneJ
In short, it’s likely that milk thistle is a waste of money and won’t help.
Hope this clarifies things,
Thomas
