What is worst on the liver, steroids or alcohol?

Either one taken to excess is bad for your body. The good news is that the liver is "self-repairing". Also, 30mg of dbol a day is not that much, unless you run it for extremely long periods of time. I'm a recovering alcoholic so I'm very conscious of the liver. I taxed it to the limit. When I quit drinking, I had this kindof yellowish gray color to me and weighed 134 lbs. Today I'm 220. Getting back to the topic, when I run dbol, I take 40mg per day for 6 weeks and that's all. Everything else is injected, so as to skip the "first pass" through the liver. Hope this helps.

I would say AS if they are orals.
When I was 19 I was sick in bed for a little over a month with flu symptoms. I got blood tested for everything ... mono, hepatitis, etc because I had an inflamed liver. All my tests came up negative and they never did figure out what happened to me. It took me about 2 months to get my full energy back. At one point they asked me if I took steroids.
At the point when I got sick I personally think it was from over-training and my body just shut down on me. I was working out hard with weights 6 days a week, running 2-5 miles a day, and my diet was about 20g of fat, 100-200g carbs and 200g protein. Plus I was taking a bunch of supplements.
Now I am 26 and getting ready for my first cycles soon and a bit nervouse because of my past. However, when it comes to training and diet I am much smarter now. Plus I am really trying to learn as much as possible about gear so that I don't make any mistakes.
Back then I would drink around one time a month, now is even less. So I don't think my liver had anything to do with alcohol.
With this thread I was trying to figure out if there was anything we all might use on a regular basis that could be as bad, or worst on the liver than oral steroids; so I could put my mind at ease because my liver is pretty much the only concern I have with starting gear.

take it for what its worth but my boss is 50, he pops 1600-3200mg ibuprofin(fell off the roof 5 years ago and broke his back), and drinks 4-5 cups of coffee with irish creme and brandy ed of his life. The liver is a strong organ, just make sure to have it tested
