Milk Thistle Plus

Milk Thistle capsules contain 175 mg of milk thistle extract, standardized to contain a minimum of 80% silymarin (3 flavonoligans: Silybin, Silydianinm and Silychristin), the bioflavonoid complex responsible for milk thistle’s powerful protective and regenerative activities in the liver. 
 
FUNCTION
Milk Thistle help break down the toxins in your body
The liver is the body’s detoxifying organ, disabling toxins such as ethanol, environmental poisons, pesticides, and certain pharmaceuticals
The liver plays an essential role in protein, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism, cholesterol synthesis, bile secretion, and storage of fat-soluble vitamins. 
Milk Thistle enhances normal, healthy hepatic function through three primary actions:  protects liver cells by blocking hepatotoxic substances from crossing cell membranes, serves as an antioxidant, and stimulates cell regeneration. 
Milk Thistle protects liver cells by acting at the cell membrane
Milk Thistle prevents harmful toxins from entering the cell by binding to the outer membrane, thereby protecting against liver intoxication from deleterious effects of both acute and chronic toxin exposures (including that of ethanol, hepatotoxic medications, such as excessive acetaminophen, poisonous fungi, and environmental pollutants)
Milk Thistle protects the liver as an important component of the liver’s antioxidant defense
Milk Thistle interrupts the course of free radical damage by quenching the free radicals, thus protecting against lipid peroxidation
Milk Thistle enhances levels of glutathione and superoxide dismutase, two primary antioxidants in the liver
Milk Thistle decreases the free radical quenching load of glutathione, thus sparing it from depletion
Milk Thistle stimulates damaged liver cells to regenerate
In the cell nucleus, silymarin activates ribosomal RNA via RNA polymerase 1, leading to increased production of ribosomes which stimulates protein synthesis in the damaged cell.
INDICATION
Milk Thistle is well suited for individuals with excessive or chronic exposure to environmental toxins, pesticides, alcohol, hepatotoxic pharmaceuticals, and other substances  
damaging to the liver.
