Promotes a healthy liver

Milk Thistle Phytosome is a potent herbal extract that also includes dandelion, turmeric, and artichoke for comprehensive liver support.

Feature Summary

Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) has been found effective for all sorts of liver disorders and it is being confirmed through laboratory studies and extensive clinical trials. The active ingredients in milk thistle are flavonoids comprised of silybin, silydianin and silychristin, collectively known as silymarin. Milk thistle extract is indicated for liver disease associated with alcohol abuse, chronic hepatitis, and protects those working with toxic chemicals, and other substances harmful to the liver.

Dandelion benefits liver functions and has been used for centuries to treat liver disorders, especially jaundice.

Artichoke increases bile flow, is helpful for digestion and liver disorders.

Turmeric exhibits strong antioxidant activity, has a liver-protective effect and increases bile solubility.

Recommended use

  • Used in herbal medicine to promote a healthy liver. 
  • Milk Thistle Phytosome is the result of a unique, patented process that binds milk thistle and key actives to phosphatidylcholine (from non-GMO soy lecithin) resulting in superior bioavailability than regular milk thistle.
