Brief Answer:
The two may contradict on liver

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

First of all there are no studies written or published how the products like Herbalife act on the liver. Whether it slows the action of liver or it goes without leaving any toxicity on the liver. Suppose it slows the action of liver then taking whisky or any alcohol can prove toxic to liver. If Herbalife does not affect the action of liver then you can moderate the consumption of alcohol only. ie you cannot have more than 45 ml of whisky each day for up to 5 days a week.

So I suggest you to ask your nutrition expert/read published reports who has suggested you to consume Herbalife's action on liver. But certainly the experts reviews about Herbalife product were bad on the liver.

Next why are you using Herbalife, to lose weight or to stay healthy. If you wish to lose weight I would suggest adopt a long approach by cutting down calories and burn calories through exercise which is proven strategy. Suppose you want to stay healthy by consuming Herbalife or other similar products this is not necessary as consuming 7 colors and 6 tastes in your daily diet is much more significant when compared to these.

Hope this convinces you to take better decisions.
