Milk thistle , botanically known as Silybum marianum , is a plant that has been used for centuries for its beneficial effects . The main substance in milk thistle is called silymarin , which is a complex of flavonoids , including silybin , silydianin and silychristin . These compounds are known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties . One of the primary uses of milk thistle is to support liver health . Silymarin has been studied for its ability to protect liver cells from damage caused by toxins and oxidative stress. It can help support the detoxification processes of the liver and support overall liver function .
The antioxidant properties of milk thistle are also beneficial for overall cell health . Silymarin helps neutralize free radicals , which are unstable molecules that can cause cell damage . By reducing oxidative stress , milk thistle can promote overall well-being and contribute to a healthy aging process. In addition, milk thistle has been studied for its potential to help calm inflammation in the digestive tract and promote healthy digestion . Some studies suggest that milk thistle may also have a protective effect on the gastric mucosa , which is the lining of the stomach.
In addition to its liver and digestive benefits, milk thistle can help lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol and promote a healthier lipid profile.
