One last thing: many people use Milk Thistle, but TUDCA and NAC are far superior for liver protection. Don't waste your money on Milk Thistle if you're running an oral.

Also, make sure you're getting your blood work done to monitor your liver enzymes. It's the only way to know for sure if the supplements are working and if your liver is okay. Don't just assume everything is fine.

It's also important to not run the oral for too long. A 4-6 week cycle is generally the max for a lot of these compounds. The longer you're on, the more stress you put on your liver. A shorter, more powerful run is often better than a long, drawn-out one.

TUDCA is great for protecting the liver from the inside out, while NAC helps with the synthesis of glutathione, which is a powerful antioxidant. So yes, using both is the best approach. It's a small price to pay for protecting your health.

Beyond supplements, proper diet and hydration are key. Avoid alcohol completely while on an oral cycle. And don't eat a high-fat diet, as that will put even more stress on your liver. Focus on lean protein and complex carbs.

Liver support is non-negotiable on any oral cycle. TUDCA is considered the gold standard. A typical dosage is 500-1000mg per day. It helps with bile flow and can protect your liver cells. NAC is also excellent and is more of an antioxidant. I'd recommend using both for maximum protection. NAC at 600-1200mg/day.

I'm thinking of adding an oral to my next cycle. I know they can be harsh on the liver, so I want to be prepared. What are the best liver support supplements to use on an oral steroid cycle, and what are the recommended dosages? I've heard of TUDCA and NAC, but I'm not sure which one is better or if I should use both.
