A.Vogel Milk Thistle Complex - Protects & Repairs Your Liver
Milk Thistle protects your liver from damage caused by alcohol, and other toxins from the environment. It also helps cells in your liver regrow.
Milk Thistle can be taken as part of a one-off detox diet, or can be taken on a regular basis as part of a healthier lifestyle.
Milk Thistle works to limit the factors that are responsible for liver damage, by altering the liver cell membrane structure. This blocks the absorption of toxins into the cells.
Milk Thistle stimulates production of new liver cells, which replace older, damaged cells. One component of Milk Thistle - Silybin - acts as an antioxidant, and is stronger than either vitamin C or E. Milk Thistle also raises levels of glutathione (a powerful antioxidant) in the liver.
This means that Milk Thistle can help protect the liver against the effects of environmental toxins, alcohol, and prescription medication. It can help to repair damage to the liver by encouraging the growth of new cells.
Indications that the liver is not functioning fully include:
Bad periods (in women)
Bad skin
Metallic taste in the mouth
Weight gain especially around the abdomen
Lethargy
Problems with temperature regulation
Anaemia.
