Silymarin content is 5%.
Intended Uses Liver Power:
Protecting the liver and gallbladder, improving their function, and assisting in alleviating digestive disorders.
Pharmacological Effects Liver Power:
Silymarin present in the Milk Thistle plant works by preventing toxins from binding to liver cell receptors and making liver cells impermeable to these toxins. Furthermore, it stimulates the biosynthesis of mRNA, leading to increased protein synthesis and the production of new liver cells. Through conducted research, silymarin has demonstrated effects such as preserving the glycogen structure and mRNA, stabilizing liver enzyme activities, and preventing toxicity from certain drugs. The soothing effects of both Milk Thistle and Artichoke plants on digestive disorders and their ability to enhance bile flow have been confirmed through multiple investigations.
