What is Silymarin?
Silymarin is an extract of milk thistle (Silybum marianum), the most popular dietary supplement for the support of healthy liver function. Silymarin is an herbal product and no health hazards or side effects have been documented in conjunction with proper administration. Our Silymarin capsule provides 300 mg of silymarin from 360 mg of standardized milk thistle (Silybum marianum) extract.
How does Silymarin Work?
Silymarin supports the stability of cell membranes and has antioxidant activities, meaning it helps to prevent, slow, or repair damage caused by free radicals. Silymarin also promotes the regeneration of liver cells, reduces inflammatory reactions, and inhibits the overgrowth of connective tissue (fibrogenesis) in the liver. The specific way in which silymarin takes effect on cellular mechanisms indicates that silymarin may also help to reduce the toxic effects of other drugs.
Apoptotic cell death of hepatocytes is now known to be a characteristic of virtually all acute and chronic liver diseases. Silymarin modulates the imbalance between cell survival and apoptosis by interfering with cell cycle regulators and proteins involved in apoptosis. Antioxidants might aid in the prevention of severe and sudden hepatic failure by interfering with the deadly cascade. Silymarin is also known to increase hepatic glutathione (the body’s master antioxidant) and may also boost the liver’s endogenous production of antioxidants.

- Supports liver function, repair, and regeneration.*
- Potent botanical extract that protects the liver from oxidative stress, fibrogenesis, and sudden disease onset.*
