Milk thistle is a flowering plant native to Mediterranean regions, belonging to the Asteraceae family.
It is easily recognised by its purple flowers and marbled leaves.
Milk thistle is traditionally used for liver health, thanks to its active ingredient, silymarin, which is thought to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Grown throughout the world, it supports liver function and is used in detoxifying food supplements.
