Mode of action

How does the active ingredient of the medicine work?

The ingredients originate from the milk thistle plant and act as a natural mixture. About the plant itself:
- Appearance: Up to 2 m tall thistle with large dark green-white marbled leaves and striking purple flowers
- Occurrence: Europe, especially sunny, rather barren locations in the Mediterranean region
- Main ingredients: Silymarin, which is a mixture of various active ingredients (silybin, silychristin, silydanin)
- Plant parts and preparations used: Extracts and tinctures from herb and fruits
Especially milk thistle fruits have pronounced liver-protective properties. Their ingredients, on the one hand, shield the liver from numerous toxins, for example alcohol. At the same time, they also intercept harmful substances and promote the formation of new liver cells. In addition, milk thistle reduces the formation of inflammatory substances in the body.
