MILK THISTLE 250 MG 120 CAPS NATURAL FACTORS
HerbalFactors Milk Thistle contains a therapeutic blend of milk thistle extract, dandelion root powder, and turmeric powder to support liver health.
Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) has been used as a digestive aid for thousands of years but is most well- known as an herbal remedy to support liver function. It is used traditionally in herbal medicine as a liver protectant and is now gaining scientific credibility through laboratory studies and extensive clinical trials.
Milk thistle’s active flavonoid complex, known as silymarin, has liver-protecting activities, while turmeric’s antioxidant curcumin helps defend the liver from oxidative stress and makes bile more soluble. Dandelion has been used therapeutically for centuries, including to help increase bile flow.
The liver is an essential detoxifying organ that we rely on for fighting infection, cleansing the blood of alcohol and toxins, and performing many metabolic functions. However, the liver’s constant exposure to toxins puts it under heavy oxidative stress.
Milk Thistle is a great product for anyone who wants to support their liver and gallbladder naturally, is following a cleanse, or is worried about toxins from their diet or environment. This non-GMO formula is standardized to contain 150 mg of silymarin in each easy-to-swallow capsule.
