Milk thistle is a natural liver detoxifier that contains a powerful compound called silymarin, which has been found to defend the liver from many industrial toxins such as carbon tetrachloride, and more common agents like alcohol. Pro Health's Milk Thistle Complex includes Choline and Inositol to promote fat and cholesterol metabolism, and Vitamin C and E for improved antioxidant protection.
The U.S. National Library of Medicine has catalogued more than 300 scientific studies of milk thistle and its active compounds. One study at a liver institute in France discovered milk thistle’s two main actions. First, it helps decrease the conversion of the carbon tetrachloride into more toxic substances, and secondly, milk thistle acts as a potent antioxidant that inhibits these toxic compounds from harming healthy liver cells.
It’s hard to overstate the importance of the liver to our general health. The second largest organ in the body after the skin, it processes all nutrients, toxins, and any other substances entering the body through the intestines, lungs, or skin. The liver is responsible for detoxification, including the natural toxins in food, as well as synthetic chemical substances in food, water, and air. It helps promote balanced blood fat and sugar levels, and is essential to virtually every aspect of metabolism. It has been called the third most important organ in the body, after the brain and the heart.
Heavy metals can cause liver toxicity and damage through the production of free radicals. Silymarin has also been shown to promote strong and healthy liver tissue. Pro Health's Milk Thistle Complex is the right choice for anyone looking for a complete liver support formula.
