Although it is better known as Cardo Mariano, Cardo de Santa Maria, or Cardo Lechal, among others, Silybum Marianum (scientific name) has Silymarin as its active ingredient.
Milk thistle is a plant that grows throughout the Mediterranean and was introduced to the United Kingdom by herbalists in the 16th century.
At that time it was used to protect yourself: from insect and snake bites, serve as an anti-inflammatory and for digestion disorders such as those related to the liver and gallbladder.
Silymarin is composed of three isomers called silybin, silidanin, and silycristin, all of which are classified as flavonolignans, with silybin being the most important component. Milk thistle is a member of the sunflower family, with purple flowers and milky white leaves. It flowers from June to August, and they are collected at the end of summer.
More than 300 scientific studies have been carried out on the properties of Milk Thistle and the possible benefits of its application, being today one of the most extensively studied plants and traditionally used in multiple remedies for its effects.
8.5 grams of plant seeds are necessary to obtain 286 mg of Milk Thistle extract, the amount present in each of our tablets (pills or tablets). For Lamberts® Milk Thistle, we use a standardized extract of the seeds, guaranteeing 200 mg of silymarin per tablet.
Few companies produce all of their herbal products in extract form, but we feel it is essential to do so. So while the “whole herb” alternative sounds great, it is simply the dried plant material that will provide mostly fiber and few active ingredients (and this is if it can be digested).
The tablets or tablets LAMBERTS Milk Thistle are concentrated, soluble and constitute a guarantee of safety and efficacy. We believe that this difference, together with the manufacturing and quality standards of LAMBERTS products; among which are herbal extracts, are the reason why our Milk Thistle tablets are considered among the most valued products in the food supplement market.
