What is milk thistle?
Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is a flowering plant in the daisy family with a long record of use by herbalists. Its seeds contain a group of flavonoid compounds known together as silymarin, and extracts are standardized so that every capsule holds the same amount of them.
The silymarin content of raw milk thistle seed varies from crop to crop. Standardizing the extract fixes the silymarin at 150 mg per capsule, so the label amount is the amount you get.
Dosage: 1 capsule 2 times daily or as directed by a health care practitioner. Use for a minimum of 3 weeks to see beneficial effects.
Cautions: Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or if you have a biliary disorder, liver or gallbladder disease, or intestinal obstruction. Stop use if hypersensitivity/allergy occurs. Keep out of the reach of children.
Have been using the milk thistle for a few months and my liver feels better.

Been using this brand for years
I was dx with an autoimmune liver disease several years ago. Since then I have been taking Milk Thistle. This brand has been the best that I have found. My liver numbers have come down a lot. Of course I’m also on other meds so is it the Milk Thistle helping? It certainly isn’t hurting.
