Description
Milk thistle, also known as water flyweed or silybum marianum, is a plant in the Asteraceae family used medicinally for over 2,000 years. Its name stems from the milky sap of its crushed leaves. Its extracts, rich in silymarin, silibinin, flavonoids, and other antioxidants, combat free radicals, enhance immunity, and mitigate oxidative stress. Primarily used for liver and gallbladder conditions, milk thistle protects the liver, stimulates bile, and detoxifies. Optimal benefits are achieved through extracts or supplements in pill, powder, tincture, or tea forms. Extracts are obtained by processing dried plant parts with organic solvents.
