Hi, I enjoy a few glasses of wine a week (sometimes more) and have been told alcohol can hurt my liver. My mom tells me to abstain and to take milk thistle to recover the damage I have done to my liver. I’m not sure how much to take and how often and what else can assist. Will it hurt my liver is I drink and take these herbs?

Short answer, listening to our mothers is usually a really good idea. Milk thistle is very beneficial in healing the liver. Not drinking and taking milk thistle is even better.
Have a look at the Liver Lesson. Lots of good info and plants there.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
