Hey all,
I was reading the dessicated liver post somewhere else on this board and it got me thinking. I once took liver pills (a guy at an excellent gym - which closed down long ago - turned me on to these as well as Beverly International products), but stopped after a year or so because...well they were just too damn hard to swallow. But now I'm reconsidering.
My two questions are, has modern technology reduced the size/flavor/scent of these things, and (most importantly) are they loaded with cholesterol? I have high chol. and eating real liver would kill me (well, not really as I'm on Lipitor).
Thanks,
-V

Ah, Liver Tabs - the nector of the strength gods!

What do you mean "...has modern technology reduced the size/flavor/scent of these things..." - that's half the fun!

I don't think you'll have too much of a prob with the big C. The fat and connective tissue has been removed before processing; plus, they are a more "condensed" version of normal liver. But as always, check with the Doc...

Rev8ball are the universal uni liver tabs a good choice?

Ah h3ll I guess I'll have to suck it up and just choke them down then.
BTW Beverly makes an excellent liver pill. From what I hear it's been a popular product for years. It's what I have used in the past.

Quoting from mmaibohm:

=============

Both Universal and Bev have great liver tabs. I use the Universal mostly because they're cheaper - Universal is the manufacturer as well, so the middle man cost is removed.

do liver tabs replace the need for multivitamins or aminos at all?
