Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 <<Hi Jay, What is the recommended dose of Milk Thistle? I buy it in bulk by the pound, and it doesn't come with any info on dose. It's very cheap to buy it this way, and I take a teaspoon a day of whole Milk Thistle seed with my teaspoon of Flax Seed that I buy by the pound also. Vince>> I don't know how to convert bulk to dosage. In my prior post I noted that the softgels that I take are 200 mg recommended 3 times daily. So, if you have a small scale you could weigh out 200 mg or 600 at one shot. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a truth, ! Only a thought I've been pondering, but I just bought some Dunkin' Donuts decaf coffee and have always frozen it, because I don't use it all the time. For some inane reason, I thought to read the label (though I've bought it for years) and it said not to freeze it, because it deteriorates with freezing. Hmmm...now why would that be, I wonder? Are they just talking about deterioration of flavor, or of the actual coffee bean? May sound inane, all in all, but I did wonder (though I am still freezing it, anyway! LOL). Perhaps, like all foodstuffs, there is a recommended freezing time before nutritional values begin to break down? Namaste, n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, coffee can be used as an agent for stimulation of the liver by means of an enema and should be stored in such a manner as provides the best quality of stimulation. So, for that reason I provide this link. http://www.ncausa.org/public/pages/index.cfm?pageid=70 I would also point out that the processing of coffee to decaffeinate it is done by using formaldehyde. This can leave it with the trace elements of which would have the body reacting in one way or another much the same as a homeopathic medication. The other form of decaf coffee is made by means of genetic engineering. So, for those purest regarding products from times past, you have to give the deepest of consideration of its homeopathic nature too.

Dale, thanks much for your info about decaf coffee. Isn't it always the way that with the enjoyable things in life, there has to be a down side? Sheesh...can't drink regular coffee, coz it gets me buzzing....oh well, " all things in moderation " . I probably won't eliminate decaf entirely, but its processing is definitely something to bear in mind. Thanks, n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
