Liver Tabs

Inarius said:
Just thinking that the acidophilus will promote digestion of the tabs easier and reduce some of the gas that I have been getting on them.

Why not enzymes to help with protein digestion? For example, I might start out by taking my liver tabs with pineapple juice...

Take them with a meal nt. Also maybe cut back how many you take with each meal. If you do 2-4 with a solid food meal you should not be getting gas from them. Typically people get gas from them when they either take too many at a time or they take them on an empty stomach.

Lol once, and never again. It really clings to your teeth, and I have never seen a liver tab come out the other end so it's not worth it in my case. Perhaps if you digest poorly, or are a sucker for punishment ;)

Re: gas, I don't find that the liver tabs give me gas at 3-4/meal, however if I eat some beans, the Liver Tabs intensify the smell.
 
i've chewed them too...surprisingly they are not as tough as they look...they disintegrated right after i crunched them...u wussies, they smell fine to me! :P

sucks to hear some of you guys get gas from them, neither brand gives me gas. (bev and uni)
 
Regardless if I eat them with or without meals, if I'm taking 6 or more at a time (I rarely take less) there is going to be some foul smelling gas an hour or two later...
 
started chewing them because of this thread the first one was nasty but after a while i had to chew more. now im addicted :0)
 
I have a love hate relationship with liver tabs. I hate that I choke to death on them because they always seem to slip sideways down my throat but I love the benefits of them.
 
Man I'm running low on my stash, I gotta pick up a few 500 count bottles. They're only lasting me like a month now...
 
Crap, this thread reminded me I need to order some more. I have learned to love these little pills. Been low on funds and sticking to the basics, and these are as basic as it gets!
 
I take around 16-20 uniliver every day. I love them, once you start using them you just don't want to be without them.

right now im taking 4 uni and 4 ultra40 w/ 3 meals of the day

i've gotta say, next time around im going for uni and scrapping ultra40

the uni's are bigger, but still are easier to swallow more at a time

not to mention less than half the cost

universal is so great for offering quality at good prices
 
im anemic, meaning i have a lack of iron in my blood
would liver tabs help to add iron into my blood or do i need to secure some straight iron supplements

I agree about consulting a doctor, but imho liver tabs are probably going to be an order of magnitude more bioavailable than a regular liver supp.

I'm getting some uniliver tabs as soon as I can...

See your doctor for sure about that a. The iron in Uni-Liver tabs is Heme Iron. It all depends on what your specific needs are in this case and only your doctor can tell you that. Ask him about these though for sure, if he tells you they will work for you then you just saved yourself a boatload of money vs buying pharmaceuticals.

Hg or UR, do either of you know how much Iron is in each tablet?

The age old question. I have that answer here somewhere Steve. Let me look a bit. What I remember is that it is naturally occurring so the amount will vary a bit from batch to batch.
 
OK I found it. It's roughly 2 mg per Uni-Liver tablet. It is important to note that it is a naturally occurring type of Iron (Heme Iron) and is therefore extremely difficult to OD on if it is even possible. Also being that it is naturally occurring in the product the amount varies from batch to batch.

I'm so glad I got a case of these before the price went up :) I think they expire in 2013 or something like that. I'm sure they'll be gone by then :)

whats you guys opinion on taking 10 or so tabs with fish oil tabs at night before bed to slow absobsion

You could certainly try it. Although I would not recommend it. 3 or 4 is plenty. If you want more proteins and amino's than that I'd get them from a casein powder or some other source. 10 tablets at a shot is asking a lot of your digestive track.
