3.0 out of 5 stars Product is only 1/2 milk thistle, June 6, 2010

No other reviews mention this, but this product is only 1/2 milk thistle (what you would expect) and 1/2 blessed thistle (not mentioned for some reason) per the ingredient label. Blessed thistle is noted for other positive benefits, but none are particularly liver-related, and it is not the same thing as milk thistle. I was somewhat confused why it is included in this product. Nature's way is a good company, but note that you are only getting about 1/2 the milk thistle you are probably expecting when you order this product...

1.0 out of 5 stars Blessed thistle? Why?, September 18, 2010

This review is from: Nature's Way Milk Thistle, 120 Vcaps (Grocery)

After a week or so of taking this product I started to experience some odd side effects. Did some research and found that blessed thistle's main therapeutic benefit is to stimulate milk production in new mothers.

Why this is included with an herb that is intended for liver support is well beyond me. Maybe someone at Nature's Way thinks "milk" thistle and an herb that helps new mothers produce milk for their babies belong together. Wrong!

What this points out is it's very important to look at labels for herbal products. Some herbs do synergize with others, but it could be dangerous to rely on a nutriceutical company's assessment without checking for yourself.

I'll be throwing the rest of my bottle away and thinking very hard about buying any of Nature's Way products in future.

I purchased this for my dogs after they receive heart worm prevention every month. So far, the one that seems to react to the medication has been very good (no throwing up). Will stay with this program and think it will benefit them.
