Well, I was just wondering if you can "CONTRACT" hepatitas from taking a desiccated liver supplement? Not treat it.
Yes, I know. I was talking about claims made by a supplement company to tout this supplement. Sorry but sometimes threads take a side road. I don't know the answer to your question. As far as I know, Hepatitis A, the viral hepatitis can only be transmitted by blood to blood. And maybe, but I'm not sure, fecally. So I don't think you can get it through injesting liver. But I don't really know.

I too would be hestant to injest large amounts of what is essentially a big poison filter. Which was my original point. Supplements are the least important thing you do next to training and diet.

EDIT*
Here is an overview but I don't know how accurate it is. Don't think my info was quite correct (which I figured ).

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
