How to choose a liver support supplement
Check the form and amount per capsule, whether it is a single ingredient or a blend, who makes and tests it, and the directions for use. If you are comparing TUDCA with a botanical option, our TUDCA vs milk thistle guide explains how the two differ.
Who should speak to a GP first
Speak to your GP or pharmacist before starting any of these if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under 18; if you take medication (especially for blood sugar, blood pressure or blood thinning, in the case of berberine); if you have gallstones or a blocked bile duct (TUDCA); or if you have a liver condition. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best liver support supplements in the UK?
There's no single best one — it depends on the ingredient you're looking for. Our range includes TUDCA, berberine and spirulina & chlorella; compare the form, the amount per capsule and the directions for each.
Is TUDCA suitable for vegans?
No. Our TUDCA is derived from animal bile, so it is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians.
Can I take TUDCA and berberine together?
There's little research on combining them. Ask your pharmacist first, especially if you take any medication.

They work in different ways — TUDCA is a bile acid, while milk thistle is a plant whose main compounds are called silymarin. Our TUDCA vs milk thistle guide compares them in detail.
