What is the best milk thistle supplement for liver support?
When choosing a supplement, standardization of the extract is key. While some products may talk about 'detox', it's more accurate to focus on supporting the body's natural processes. The Swanson Milk Thistle 250mg supplement contains an extract standardized to a minimum of 80% silymarin, a crucial quality indicator. Silymarin is the complex of flavonoid compounds responsible for milk thistle's antioxidant properties, which help protect liver cells and support their function. Standardization ensures you get a consistent, effective amount in every capsule, distinguishing high-quality supplements from simple powdered herbs.
What is the difference between milk thistle and silymarin?
This is a common and excellent question. Simply put, milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is the plant itself. Silymarin is not a single substance but a complex of active compounds (flavonolignans) extracted from the seeds of the milk thistle plant. It is this silymarin complex that is credited with most of the plant's health-supporting benefits, particularly its role in protecting and supporting the healthy function of liver cells. By choosing a product with silymarin, you are getting the concentrated essence of what makes milk thistle so beneficial.
How to Use
