Brief Answer:
unfortunately would not likely help

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic


Cirrhosis of the liver, unfortunately, does not normally regress or improve. It refers to the formation of scar tissue in the liver that would prevent normal functioning of the liver.
The scar tissue, unfortunately does not normally go away once it has been formed.

Livlean formula contains vitamin c, vitamin b6, folic acid, vitamin b12, selenium, milk thistle, acetyl cysteine, turmeric, choline, picrorhiza kurroa.

There are claims that this med can help with weight and possible regeneration of the liver but there are little medical studies confirming the liver aspect of this.

This means that at the moment there is no medical evidence to indicate that these meds would help with liver function.

There were some studies that looked at milk thistle but when these studies were reviewed by Cochrane (medical association that reviews studies) , they found that the studies were all flawed and poor quality and there was unfortunately no evidence that it helps.

I am sorry about the cirrhosis but as mentioned above, there is no evidence that this supplement would be helpful.
