Milk thistle in Milk Thistle from Nature’s Answer
The herb milk thistle (botanical name: Silybum marianum) is a flowering herb with wonderful natural properties. This powerful plant has been used in Europe for more than 2000 years. The Greek physician Dioscorides, for example, recommended the plant in his day. He advised mixing the seeds with honey and taking them for coughs (source). Today, milk thistle is known in herbal medicine as a liver herb. Milk thistle has been shown to contribute to liver cleansing and normal liver and gallbladder function.
The main active constituent in milk thistle is silymarin. Many herbal preparations are therefore standardised to contain at least 70% silymarin. Silymarin is not actually a single substance, but a collective name for a group of compounds chemically classified as (fat-soluble) flavonolignans. The main compounds in this group are silybin, isosilybin, silychristin and silydianin. Milk thistle also contains flavonoids, phenolic derivatives, betaine (trimethylglycine) and phytosterols, among other constituents.
