I try not to chew them, but I have! They aren't the best tasting thing there is to put in your mouth, but swallowing 20 of these things whole gets old after a while.

Beverly Ultra 40 is $28. Worth every penny considering their quality.

Stole this from another forum...

The amount of Ultra 40 that you should take depends on your level of training and energy needs. Beginners can start at six tablets per day (two per meal), and intermediates should take no less than six liver tablets per meal over three meals or 3 - 5 tablets per meal over 5 - 6 daily meals. Advanced bodybuilders make fantastic progress on 30-40 liver tablets per day over periods of time. Incidentally thirty of Beverly’s Ultra 40 is equivalent to the 100+ of the desiccated liver tabs that the old-timers took to achieve tremendous drug free gains. You can take in tremendous amounts of protein and nutrients without large amounts of food. Bodybuilding has a few basics responsible for gains in size and strength – hard training, total calories, protein and in our opinion, the best Liver Extract, Beverly’s Ultra 40.

Just finish your Uniliver. I remember reading an article on Beverly Ultra 40 once. I’ll try to find it and post it here. I think Tank316 was the once who posted it once, so man if you still have that handy and see this post it here if you don’t mind

Why you need it: Dessicated liver is a veritable staple in bodybuilding, it has been around since the 1950's and was strongly popularized by the late Iron Guru, Vince Gironda. Gironda saw the enormous potential of liver. After all it's a great source for additional amino acids to begin with. It's also rich in all kinds of vitamins, especially B-complex vitamins. It is also a potent source of Iron, something most people on a diet high in calcium will be thankful for. I drink 1-2 gallons of milk a day when bulking so obviously I get a lot of calcium. P450 is a liver-protecting enzyme that is also found in glandular dessicated liver. So it's a versatile source of nutrients for next to no money. Dessicated liver also has a bit of a water retention effect when bulking, allowing more nutrients to be stored and used in the body. I once saw someone gain 7 pounds in 7 days, mostly water, but consequently turn it in to a tremendous lean mass gain over the next couple of months.

How it works: The extra bio-available amino acids provide a worthy ally in your battle against catabolism, whether making an already high protein meal even higher in protein with an excellent ratio of amino acids, or supplying some amino's between meals to keep nitrogen and GH levels high throughout the day. The extra vitamins are a bonus in todays world of processed foods, and if you get a lot of calcium in your diet, odds are you'll benefit from the rich source of iron. Combined with all the pills people tend to stack these days, a hefty dose of P450 and vitamin B6 is not too much luxury for the health-conscious bodybuilder.

How to use it: Pick a good reputable brand that marks the contents of its tabs in grains, because otherwise you have no way of knowing how many grains you have to a gram. A good brand could be Uni-Liver by Universal, which averages 30 grains per tab. Take three doses of the stuff daily, with meals or between meals for nitrogen retention. For mere a mere addition, use 3 times 2-4 tabs (60-120 grains), for those seeking maximum benefit and better recuperation, three doses of 4-6 tabs (12-18 grains) would be better suited. At this rate a batch of 500 tabs still lasts you a month and should run you no more than 10-12 bucks. A great deal if you ask me. This is definitely one of the products I most strongly recommend.

I'm taking Liver-Health / Support pills at the moment as part of my PCT to a M1T cycle.

They seem to do their thing pretty well. I usually don't support GNC, but I picked the ones up that are in the Blue Glass bottle with the red top. 90 Pills for like $10.00, they were on sale. I was in a hurry, and didn't want to hunt down any others, so I just nabbed those on my way home.

I've noticed since I started taking them, that I no longer feel like I have "indigestion" and that I'm hungry more often? I dunno if it's just my workout or what. I pretty much starting taking them as a precautionary thing, since the M1T was probably not the best thing for my liver. (it sure was for my biceps though! hehehe)

So yes, I'm taking them @ the moment,

Youre thinking Milk Thistle, for liver health.

Min0 is talking about Dessicated Liver Tabs. Basically, just powdered Argentinian Cow's Liver.

Its not only a good source of aminos, but its also a good source of B vitamins. However, they taste like ass.

No, not a necessity. No supplements are. But, if you already take the basics like protein, creatine, multi, etc; then it might be worth thinking about.

Uniliver is a good brand, but Beverly is best, IMO.
