Milk thistle Seed benefits, to a large extent, are due to the active antioxidant ingredient called silymarin. Silymarin is a bioflavonoid complex and the liver protecting compound present in the seeds that supports the detoxification and renewal of the liver organ.
The three main silymarin flavonoid constituents are:
Silymarin repairs the liver by stimulating protein synthesis thus changing the outside layer of liver cells. This process blocks toxin and removes them from the body.
In a none bias study experts concluded that the silymarin in milk thistle is tremendously beneficial, blocking toxins and stimulating cell regeneration in damaged liver tissue. Milk thistle benefits the liver and gall bladder as a "cholagogue", increasing bile flow and production helpful for the break down of excess fat potentially accumulating in the body and liver. Bile is the primary way that cholesterol (lipids) and fat are eliminated from the body. Milk thistle seed powder acts as a natural laxative because of its demulcent nature as well as these bile enhancing qualities.
Along with a health promoting diet high in raw or lightly cooked foods, increased bile secretions help to reverse a fatty liver and dissolve liver stones and gallstones that are a direct result of fat build up and sluggishness in these organs.
You don't need to have health issues to begin using the milk thistle as a powder, as seeds, tincture or extract. Milk thistle is a very effective digestive aid. So if you enjoy consuming rich fatty foods this is great for secreting the bile to stimulate digestive enzymes that help to break down animal fats as well as trans fats (should you choose to eat them).
