Liveright
Guardian Health
Overview
Liveright combines several well-known liver support ingredients. While Milk Thistle, Astragalus, and Schisandra have traditional uses and some scientific backing for liver and antioxidant benefits, the dosages of some key ingredients, particularly L-Glutathione and Milk Thistle, are below optimal levels often seen in effective clinical studies. The inclusion of Glisodin Superoxide Dismutase provides a more bioavailable form of a potent antioxidant. The overall effectiveness is hampered by the underdosing of some core ingredients and the poor oral bioavailability of others.
The Good
Includes Milk Thistle, a well-regarded ingredient for liver support.
Contains a variety of ingredients with antioxidant properties.
Includes GliSODin, a bioavailable form of Superoxide Dismutase, for enhanced antioxidant delivery (though at a low dose).
The Bad
Several key ingredients, particularly Milk Thistle and Schisandra, are underdosed compared to clinically effective amounts.
L-Glutathione is present at a very low dose, and its oral bioavailability is generally poor, questioning its efficacy.
The dose of Glisodin Superoxide Dismutase (5mg) is significantly below the minimum effective dose cited in research (500-1000mg/day).
