About Milk Thistle 175mg

Milk Thistle, Silybum marianum, is a spiny leaved plant containing reddish-purple flowers. The seeds or fruits naturally consist of four substances known collectively as silymarins, the most potent of the four being called silibin.

Milk thistle is widely used for liver health as it helps preserve normal metabolic activity of the liver and supports its regenerative processes. Silymarin plays a role in displacing toxins binding to the liver and causing the cells of the liver to regenerate at a faster rate. Milk thistle is particularly helpful to the body in combating the harmful effects of pollution.

Milk thistle is very popular among those taking certain medications as a liver support supplement. This herbal supplement contains standardized Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) extract powder from the highest grade whole seeds.
