How Milk Thistle Protects your Body
Did you know there are now over 80,000 industrial chemicals found in everyday products, with 1000 new ones introduced each year? Only a fraction have been tested for safety in humans, and this affects our liverâs ability to protect us. Milk Thistle is one of the most powerful ways you can protect your liver. Hereâs how:

When the liver canât effectively neutralize and dispose of toxins, they can accumulate in the liver and in body fat, or circulate in the bloodstream â ultimately ending up in bones, lymph or brain. Milk thistle extracts can arrest and even reverse liver damage from toxins. Over 1000 different prescription and over-the-counter drugs have been associated with liver damage.
Milk Thistle eases NAFLD and improves cholesterol profiles in diabetic patients
The liver also contributes to detoxification by promoting the production of glutathione, the bodyâs âmasterâ antioxidant. Although every living cell in the body is needs glutathione, the liver contains and needs so much more of this disease-fighting substance than any other organ or tissue in the body. However, the bodyâs stores of glutathione are not unlimited. If glutathione in the liver is completely overwhelmed â as occurs in an overdose of a toxic substance such as acetaminophen â liver failure (and possibly, death) can result.
WEIGHT AND FAT IN THE LIVER
In addition to protecting against drugs and chemicals, Milk Thistle helps to alleviate damage from excess calories and carbohydrates â and binging. With the ability to actually stop fat from lodging in the liver, Milk Thistle has been acknowledged in several studies as an inexpensive, non-toxic adjunct treatment for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Milk Thistle also greatly benefits diabetics.
