Today we're going to talk about the amazing health benefits of milk thistle on your liver.

Now the active phytonutrient in milk thistle is called sillybinin and this compound has some

serious credible research on positive outcomes for insulin resistance fatty liver and also decreasing

liver enzymes and I'll put the link below of the study but it's a placebo controlled double-blinded

phase 3 randomized clinical trial and is definitely not an observational study using a food questionnaire

looking at one variable. There's some hardcore research also what it can do for hepatitis C because

it has potent antiviral properties. Milk thistle has the ability to rid hydrogen peroxide from the

tissues if it's being overproduced by the cells because there's damage in the cells it has anti-inflammatory

properties. Milk thistle is chemo-protective in other words if you're being exposed to poisonous

mushrooms for example or alcohol or drugs or pesticides this can help protect the liver it's

also anti-carstinogenic can help reduce the risk of certain types of cancer very powerful anti-oxidant

it's a very strong anti-fibronic in other words it can help reduce fibrosis of the liver

that's cirrhosis it can also nullify cytokines which is behind inflammatory conditions of the

liver it also supports the gallbladder and can improve gallbladder function especially the

production of bile so it's quite an amazing herb and it's been around for a very very long time

now I don't have a specific brand that I'm going to recommend however if you're going to get milk

thistle I would recommend getting the freeze dried it's just going to be more potent and have all the

nutrition self-contained
