Milk thistle • 60 capsules • Phytoline

The proposed innovative product includes a dry polysaccharide extract of Tremella fuciformes (extractant—purified water). It has been found that the polysaccharides of this mushroom significantly increase the absorption of the water-soluble plant extract mixed with them and provide its more pronounced positive effect on the body.

• The active component of milk thistle is silymarin, a complex of flavonolignans with pronounced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Silymarin acts on the liver parenchyma, helping to protect liver cells from lipid peroxidation, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. Helps maintain healthy liver function—stimulates the growth of new hepatocytes, promotes regeneration and eliminates the causes of liver cell damage. Long-term use of milk thistle can reduce fatty infiltration of the liver and improve liver function tests, increase the liver’s resistance to the effects of toxins and medications. Having a mild choleretic effect, milk thistle promotes the timely removal of toxins from the body, ensuring high-quality detoxification processes. Of course, these properties of milk thistle also have a beneficial effect on the quality of the skin, reduce the appearance of acne and reduce excess sebum production.

• Increases levels of glutathione, the body’s main antioxidant that protects cells from free radical damage. Glutathione improves the stability of the cell membrane, binds to hydrophobic toxic substances during their biotransformation in the liver in order to remove them from the body as part of bile.

• Silymarin is effective against dyslipidemia. It regulates the lipid profile by lowering total cholesterol and triglyceride levels while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. Silymarin can also regulate blood glucose, which is especially important for patients with diabetes. It helps reduce complications on kidney function in type II diabetes.

• Milk thistle silymarin has an anti-inflammatory effect on the body by inhibiting NF-κB (a factor that regulates the expression of immune response genes), and also helps reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-17 and TNF-α. Adding milk thistle to drug therapy for rheumatoid arthritis helped reduce indicators of disease severity—joint pain, inflammatory markers ESR, and C-reactive protein. It is also effective in treating Alzheimer’s disease due to its pronounced anti-inflammatory effect.
