Is The Toxicity Of Urine Due To Herbal Supplements?
I have been taking milk thistle w dandelion fennel and licorice for about a month- I am a fairly heavy drinker and though my enzymes were not elevated last visit I thought it would be a good safeguard- my urine is very toxic especially after a couple drinks- is this a result of the supplements most likely?
