Milk Thistle Plus

Milk Thistle Plus provides significant amounts of three important herbs for supporting optimal liver function.* The liver is the main metabolic processing organ in the body, and it performs the crucial task of disarming toxins ingested from air, water, food, drugs, or created from the body’s metabolism, so they can be safely eliminated. The liver also manufactures bile, which is then stored in the gall bladder. The detoxification process of the liver works in two phases. The first, called the mixed-function oxidase system, oxidizes toxins, often creating molecules more toxic than the original molecules. The second phase called the conjugation phase, converts the toxic metabolites from phase I into harmless molecules, such as glucuronides, ester sulfates, and glutathione conjugates.
