50ml

Liver is critical to our overall health. Milk thistle is known for its ability to support liver health specifically.

The liver plays a central role in metabolic processes in the body, converts nutrients in our diet into forms our body can use, and helps clear toxic substances from our body. Although milk thistle is most often used for liver conditions, such as hepatitis and cirrhosis, the herb is believed some to prevent or treat high cholesterol, diabetes, heartburn, upset stomach (dyspepsia), hangover, gallbladder problems, menstrual pain, depression, and even certain types of cancer. The seeds from the milk thistle flower cones are used to make the extract. Once they are crushed, the silymarin is released through the cracks in the seed shell

Useful for: Hepatitis & Cirrhosis of Liver, Gallstones, Anti-inflammatory, Depression, Dyspepsia (upset stomach), Clears toxic substances(hangover), Menstrual Pain
