Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Liver life has alcohol in it, milk thistle is effective on it's own why add alcohol to the mix if uneneccesary? > > > I am planning to use Liver Life for drainage and Milk Thistle for Liver Support for my son who is 2.5.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Its easy to get the alcohol out. Its used as a preservative. Alcohol is also used as a preservative for various homeopathic remedies. Take the amount of medicine required in a separate glass bottle and put it in hot water for 5 minutes all the alcohol will evaporate. > > > > > I am planning to use Liver Life for drainage and Milk Thistle for Liver Support for my son who is 2.5.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Rochelle, will adding boiling water cook the thistle and change its effectiveness--doubleboiling it? > > Its easy to get the alcohol out.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 I did not mean boil the liquid. What i meant is this. Take a small glass bottle. Pour a little bit of liver life into it(10 drops). Take some water in a cup and microwave for 1 min(not too hot not too cold). Place bottle with 10 drops of liver life in the hot water for some time. All alcohol will evaporate. You are not cooking any of the ingredients in liverlife. People do this with homeopathic remedies all the time. > > > > Its easy to get the alcohol out.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Point being liver life is unnecessary and more expensive, milk thistle alone is more than sufficient dosed 4 x a day. > > > > > > > I am planning to use Liver Life for drainage and Milk Thistle for Liver Support for my son who is 2.5.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I get the point. I think what you dont understand is why people are using liver life. While Milk Thistle is used for liver support, it is not used for drainage. Liver life on the other hand is used for both Liver Drainage and Support and hence it is expensive. Since they use alcohol as a preservative in liver life, I was merely trying to point out how to get rid of the alcohol.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I understood what you meant. Doubleboiling is a cooking term; what you do to melt chocolate without directly applied heat by using steam or heat from heated water. I wondered if doubleboiling - using the heat of water/steam to melt or heat food, or in this case evaporating the alcohol - would change the effectiveness of Liverlife if heated. > > > I did not mean boil the liquid.
