Milk Thistle - Benefits for Skin and Health



Milk thistle is a flowering herb related to the daisy family. It is native to South European countries, although it is now found in temperate regions throughout the world.

It is most known for its benefits for the liver, but it can also be used for several other conditions such as high cholesterol levels, type 2 diabetes, indigestion issues and menopausal symptoms, not to mention its use for anti-aging and as a free radical scavenger and antioxidant, which are very interesting properties if you are interested in the health and looks of your skin.

But how does it work?

Its seeds contain a bioflavonoid complex called silymarin, which is responsible for the main benefits of milk thistle for skin and health. Silymarin is both anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant.

Studies indicate that silymarin may support long-term liver health and help with chronic liver conditions such as alcoholic hepatitis, alcoholic fatty liver, cirrhosis, liver poisoning and viral hepatitis. Multiple studies also indicate that milk thistle extract protects the liver from toxins such as occationally used alcohol (even if in excess) or a polluted environment.

How milk thistle helps with acne, rosacea, psoriasis and eczema

From the benefits milk thistle has on the liver, one can see that it is detoxifying, a powerful antioxidant and generally anti-inflammatory. Think about it: all these properties are beneficial for fighting skin conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis or eczema naturally which is why the herb is believed to be able to help with these skin conditions as well.

In fact, by cleansing the liver and boosting the immune system, all these benefits can also be seen on the skin, which speaks for taking a milk thistle supplement if you suffer from any of these skin conditions and want to get rid of the irritation of the skin naturally.

How to take milk thistle

If you want to try out milk thistle for yourself, the best idea is to look for a supplement which contains 50 to 150 milligrams of it as a daily dose. This should be suitable for ongoing use and health support.

Make sure to look for a brand that sells highly potent extract labeled at least 80 percent pure silymarin, as any less is likely to be a waste of money as any less is not really going to help, unless you eat tons of the supplement. It's better to get one where you only need to take one or a few capsules daily than having to eat them all the time just because they are poor quality!

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
