Milk Thistle (also commonly known as St. Mary’s Thistle or Holy Thistle) is a potent antioxidant herb that is often used in digestive health. It’s main benefits are to;
- promote healthy liver function
- provide support for detoxification as a result of a healthy liver
- alleviate inflammation of the liver
- support the repair of cells after minor liver damage occurs
Milk Thistle cannot be obtained through dietary sources, so a dietary supplement is recommended for the above benefits to be recognised.
Milk Thistle can be used during a detox or in times when overindulgence (in food &/or alcohol) is apparent. In today’s climate, where environmental toxins are ever-present, the detoxification of our organs is hugely important. Milk Thistle is a great natural way to detoxify the liver.
