Posted by yankeelady

Does anyone out there know if high dose vitamins are good or bad for your liver health?  I am a recovering alcoholic for 18 mos., after 22 yrs of hard alcohol abuse, and am now trying to restore my health, especially my liver, as best i can. i have read that a good diet and lots of vitamin supplements will help. I also heard, that toomany vitamins can hurt your liver.Does anyone have any knowledge on this topic, or can you refer me to  somewhere for advice? The drs. i have been to have not got a clue, and do not seem to care. i am a 56 y.o. woman trying to restore as much of my mental and physical health as possible at this point. thank for listening.
