Swanson Milk Thistle
Swanson Milk Thistle is a herbal capsule combining a standardised milk thistle extract with whole milk thistle powder. Milk thistle is a flowering plant from the daisy family, and its seeds contain silymarin, a group of flavonoid compounds.
Key features
- 250 mg milk thistle extract per capsule, standardised to 80 percent silymarin
- Plus 250 mg of milk thistle powder in the same capsule
- Silymarin is a flavonoid complex found in milk thistle seeds
- Standardisation gives a consistent level of silymarin from batch to batch
- Capsule format with no taste
Milk thistle has a long history of traditional use in European herbalism and remains one of the most widely bought herbal products. Pairing a standardised extract with the whole herb powder means you get both a measured silymarin content and the broader range of compounds found in the plant itself.
Available in 250mg - 120 capsules (standardised).
