NSI Milk Thistle Extract -- 600 mg per serving - 300 Capsules

NSI Milk Thistle Extract -- 600 mg per serving - 300 Capsules

Promotes healthy liver function! Powerful antioxidant! How Does NSI® Milk Thistle Work? Used for more than 2,000 years, milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is native to the Mediterranean region and indigenous to western and central Europe. The plant has a long stem, purple-pink flowers, and wide leaves with white veins. The seeds contain an antioxidant flavonoid complex known as silymarin, used traditionally to promote healthy liver function. Silymarin is composed of three biochemicals: silychristine, silydianin, and silybin. Silymarin may inhibit the depletion of glutathione, an amino acid that plays a part in the body's overall defense system, as well as the liver's ability to detoxify. As an antioxidant, silymarin may have free-radical scavenging properties, allowing it to absorb harmful reactive atoms than can damage other molecules. It supports the liver's ability to function properly and may help the liver with synthesis of new proteins. NSI® Milk Thistle is better because it:. Delivers 600 mg of standardized milk thistle in two capsules! Is a high-quality extract that's a superior value when compared to other brands.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

Milk Thistle, April 28, 2009
By sealb from Phoenix

"I take this because I like to have my glass of wine in the evening. I also give it to my dog as a naturopathic vet said his skin issues seemed to be liver related. I just started him on it so the jury is still out but I had given it to my other dog when my regular vet tested her and wanted her liver to test healthier after other health problems. She did very well on it."

Relieves Fibrocystic Breast Pain, January 15, 2008
By Jumpinjan from CA

"I have always had very tender swollen breasts a week or so before my period. I read that milk thistle can help because it helps the liver excrete excess estrogen from the body, which may be responsible for the fibrocystic breast pain. It took about 2 months but it really worked for me!"

"I was advised by a Liver specialist a few years ago to start taking Milk Thistle. Due to losing my gall bladder at a young age I had began experiencing liver function problems in my late 40's. (The other option "offered" was a two year course of steroids, which I refused.) I have tried a variety of Milk Thistle products and I've found this one works the best. I can tell when my liver function is decreasing and usually one extra capsule for a few days gets things "back on track". Great product!!"

"We were using another brand of Milk Thistle before finding NSI Milk Thistle Extract. We prefer yours as the price is better, and each capsule provides twice as much as our old brand. Also NSI's comes in a large bottle so we don't have to order it every month, like we were doing with the small bottles."

"NSI's Milk Thistle is a great value for the cost. It does not say on the bottle not to take it if you are allergic to ragweed like the cheaper brands you find in department stores do, and I have a lot of such seasonal allergies, and can take it with no problem at all.
I have endometriosis, and take milk thistle on a daily basis without any adverse effects. My reason for taking milk thistle is to help my liver work more efficiently, which helps with an autoimmune disorder. I gathered this from some articles in medical journals...

I did notice a difference in experienced pain and attributed it to the fact that I failed to continue taking milk thistle for the past few months. It seems to work that way, but I could not know for sure.;) No matter the real cause for my personal reasoning for taking it, this product seems to contribute to overall health and is a good choice if you are considering taking milk thistle.
