Milk Thistle Dosage? A bit confused here...
Just started taking milk thistle for my liver and gallbladder.
I bought some milk thistle extract pills which contain 175mg per serving size of 2 pills. It says to take 2 pills daily with meals. Since a serving size is 2 pills, that means 175mg would be a serving.
Does that mean 6 pills a day (2 with each meal)? The wording is really open ended. Just confused as to proper dosage. If anyone could shed some light on this, I would really appreciate the help. I'm new to this stuff :)

Okay, thanks for the reply. I did some research online and it seems like 300-600mg daily is the recommended dose, so I've been taking 4 pills daily which puts me at 350mg/day.
It means to take the 2 pills with one of your meals, not 6 of them. However, I have taken that many,they will not hurt, they are a liver cleanser, and will help to detox your liver, along with Dandelion root.
