Milk Thistle
Milk Thistle Supplements
Milk thistle supplements contain silymarin, an antioxidant flavonoid complex found in milk thistle seeds. Milk thistle is well known for its role in promoting healthy liver function† and has been used as a natural remedy for thousands of years. Milk thistle supplements are available in many forms, including extracts, capsules and tea. While milk thistle seeds are not technically a supplement, they are edible and have a nutty, salty and sweet flavor. Try adding them to baked goods, smoothies and dips for more opportunities to cash in on its whole-food benefits.
