erm... nope? it just clears your kidneys i thought

Not directly, its never been documented to help with weight loss that i know of....its known mainly for helping and protecting the liver....i know people that a tincture of milk thistle before a night on the beer to counteract any damage....as for weight loss, like i say not directly, but if you have a sluggish liver then that will have a knock on effect of possibly slowing down your metabolism...so by taking milk thistle you would be helping to eliminate a possible problem that could prevent you from losing weight.....there are plenty of herbs out there that will directly help you lose weight....the best that i know of is Hoodia...its a cactus extract....people use it as an appetite suppressant and its excellent....green tea's another good one, you dont even have drink it, you can buy it in capsule form.....just google 'herbs and weight loss' and you should get plenty of info.

it dosent not help.....

no, milk thistle is more for liver detox and cleansing. It may assist in weight loss though, by detoxing your body.

Milk Thistle helps to rejuvenate your liver.
Clearing out toxins can help your weight lose if you are eating healthily
