FAQ:

Should I take Milk Thistle before, during or after a meal?

For best results and least chance of stomach upset you should take 1 capsule daily with a meal.

The label lists 12000mg and 400mg. Which is it?

Both! As milk thistle usage evolved over the years consumers found that they wanted to take more milk thistle than was easily ingested as the whole herb.

To answer this need, extractions were developed. Today, the vast majority of milk thistle consumed is in the form of an extract.

The commonly accepted nomenclature for milk thistle extracts is to state both the extract amount per serving (400 mg) and the whole herb equivalent (12000 mg in our case since it is 30:1 extract). If you look at the Supplements Facts panel on your bottle label, you should see both of these amounts listed.
