Milk Thistle Seed – $6.71/oz

Description

Milk thistle seed (Silybum marianum) is the shiny, mottled seed of a striking thistle crowned with purple flowers. It is the classic liver herb of European practice, traditionally used to support liver health, healthy digestion of fats, and the body’s normal detoxification processes. The whole seed keeps best; crack or grind it just before use, then simmer briefly or stir the ground seed into food. The flavour is mild, nutty, and slightly bitter. Traditional uses reflect historical practice and are not proven clinical effects. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
