Liver Support
GNC Herbal Plus
Overview
This supplement combines several herbal extracts traditionally used for liver support. While milk thistle has significant research support for liver health, the other ingredients have less robust evidence. The combination may provide some benefits, but the overall effectiveness is limited by the lower efficacy of some ingredients and the lack of strong evidence for synergistic effects.

Vegetarian-friendly formulation.
The Bad
Potential for gastrointestinal upset.
Risk of interaction with certain medications, particularly those metabolized by the CYP450 enzyme system.
May not be suitable for individuals with ragweed allergies, or those with estrogen sensitive cancers.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking general liver health support, those with lifestyle factors impacting liver health
