LIV-52

Liv-52 is an herbal medicine used widely in Europe and Asia to support metabolic and liver health. While in some countries this product is regarded as a drug, it contains all natural ingredients including capparis spinosa, terminalia arjuna, cichorium intybus, achillea millefolium, solanum nigrum, tamarix gallica, and cassia occidentalis. It is specifically used in the prevention or treatment of hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, early liver cirrhosis, protein energy malnutrition, loss of appetite, radiation and chemotherapy induced liver damage, as an adjunct to hepatotoxic drugs, and to support metabolism during convalescence or prolonged illness. As the first three letters of its name would suggest, overall liver health is the primary focus of this product. Bodybuilders and athletes use Liv-52 as a way to reduce the level of strain placed on the liver by hepatotoxic anabolic/androgenic steroids. Numerous medical studies have been conducted on Liv-52 in recent years, many of which involve its ability to protect the liver from damage by alcohol or other toxins.751 752 753 754

LIV-52

描述:

liv - 52 是一種草藥，廣泛應(yīng)用于歐洲和亞洲，以支持新陳代謝和肝臟健康。在一些國(guó) 家，這種產(chǎn)品被認(rèn)為是一種藥物，它含有所有的天然成分，包括刺山柑，阿江欖仁(三 果木)，野菊苣，西洋蓍草，龍葵，柳菌和望江南。它特別用于預(yù)防或治療肝炎、酒精 性肝病、早期肝硬化、蛋白質(zhì)能量營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良，食欲減退、放療和化療引起肝損傷，作 為肝毒性藥物的輔助，在康復(fù)期或長(zhǎng)期疾病期間支持新陳代謝。正如其名的前三個(gè)字 母所示，整體的肝臟健康是這個(gè)產(chǎn)品的主要焦點(diǎn)。健美運(yùn)動(dòng)員和運(yùn)動(dòng)員使用 LIV-52 作 為一種方法來減少合成代謝/雄激素類固醇對(duì)肝臟的毒性壓力。近年來，許多醫(yī)學(xué)研究 都是在 LIV-52 上進(jìn)行的，其中很多都涉及到，保護(hù)肝臟不受酒精或其它毒素傷害的能 力。

One investigation in particular looked at how the herbal medication affected the breakdown of alcohol in the body, showing that it notably increased its excretion, even to the point of being able to reduce next day hangover symptoms after binge drinking.755 Another study investigated what underlying mechanism might be involved in Liv-52’s ability to protect the liver against alcohol toxicity. It demonstrated that one mechanism involved a specific ability to slow the rate of glutathione depletion.756 This may be very important to the steroid-using athlete, as glutathione depletion is looked at as a direct marker of liver stress with c-17 alpha alkylated orals. Note that while these studies lend support for the use of a natural remedy like Liv-52 during hepatotoxic steroid administration, they do not provide complete assurance that this remedy can prevent liver damage.

一項(xiàng)調(diào)查特別研究了草藥如何影響身體中酒精的分解，顯示其顯著增加了酒精排出，

甚至可以減少在暴飲暴食后次日的宿醉癥狀.755 另一項(xiàng)研究調(diào)查了哪些基礎(chǔ)機(jī)制，可

能涉及 Liv-52 的保護(hù)肝臟免受酒精毒性的能力。它證明了這種機(jī)制涉及到減緩谷胱甘

肽消耗速率的特異性能力.756 對(duì)于使用類固醇的運(yùn)動(dòng)員來說，這可能非常重要，因?yàn)?/p>

谷胱甘肽的消耗，被視為具有 c-17α 烷基化口服類固醇的肝臟壓力的直接標(biāo)記。注意，

雖然這些研究支持，在具有肝毒性類固醇的給藥期間，使用像 Liv-52 這樣的天然補(bǔ)劑，

但是它們并不能完全保證這種治療方法可以預(yù)防肝臟損傷。

History:

Liv-52 is an herbal product that has its roots in ayurvedic medicine, an age old form of Hindu science and medicine that centers on the use of natural remedies. Liv-52 is manufactured by the Himalaya Drug Co. in Bombay, India, and was first introduced to the global market in 1955. Over the years it came to be a widely distributed and popular natural product. In 2002, the Swiss government actually classified Liv-52 as a pharmaceutical product, which is believed to be the first time an herbal remedy was adopted as a prescription drug in Western Europe.757

Liv-52 had already been popular with steroid using bodybuilders and athletes for many years by this point, and further clinical support only cemented this position. Liv-52 presently remains the most commonly used form of natural liver support among the steroid-using community today.

歷史:

Liv-52 是一種草藥產(chǎn)品，其根源在于一種以印度教科學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)為基礎(chǔ)的古老形式的印 度醫(yī)學(xué)，著重于采用自然療法。Liv-52 由印度孟買的喜馬拉雅藥物公司制造，并于 1955 年首次引入全球市場(chǎng)。多年來，它成為廣泛分布和受歡迎的天然產(chǎn)品。2002 年， 瑞士政府實(shí)際上將 Liv-52 列為藥品，據(jù)信這是首次在西歐被接受的一個(gè)草藥處方.757

基于這一點(diǎn)，到目前為止，多年來 Liv-52 已經(jīng)受到使用類固醇的健美運(yùn)動(dòng)員和運(yùn)動(dòng)員 的歡迎，而且進(jìn)一步的臨床支持只是更鞏固了這一點(diǎn)。Liv-52 目前仍然是當(dāng)今類固醇 使用團(tuán)體中，最常用的天然肝臟支持形式補(bǔ)劑。
