Milk Thistle Powdered Extract
(80% Silymarin) Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum) is grown in Europe, the United States, and China. The seed, fruit, and leaves are used for medicinal purposes. Also known as Mary thistle, Marian thistle, Lady's thistle, Holy thistle, and wild artichoke, it has a flowering season from June to August. Traditional folk medicine uses Milk Thistle to assist the nursing mother in the production of milk. Other uses included curing jaundice and biliary derangements. Milk Thistle is currently recommended for liver disorders, hepatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, and is widely used in European pharmaceutical preparations for hepatic disorders. It is thought to help protect the liver in three ways. It helps protect the liver cell membranes against toxins; it helps the regeneration of damaged liver tissue, and it acts as a powerful antioxidant to neutralize free radicals. Silymarin is one of the most potent liver-protecting substances known.
