That's correct as far as affecting the liver is concerned - GHB is the substance your body is looking for, but 1,4B needs to be converted into GHB in your liver. So GHB is the direct route, but 1,4B needs to be processed.wazza said:Far as I know, GHB doesn't have any real problems with the liver. It's 1,4b that does. 1,4b is converted into the body into GHB. I might be wrong and just got home, will do a search soon if no one else is. I need food!
