Organic Milk Thistle - 300 mg - 100 vegetarian capsules

○ Latin name: Silybum marianum ○ Dosage: 300 mg per capsule Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is a herbaceous plant native to the Mediterranean basin and central Europe. It is often cultivated for its seeds, which are used for medicinal purposes. In addition to its medicinal properties, milk thistle is also used as an ornamental plant due to its bright pink or purple flowers and silvery green, lion's tooth shaped leaves. ֍ According to legend, the Virgin Mary accidentally spilled milk on thistle leaves, leaving a distinctive white spot on the leaves. This white spot was interpreted as a sign of the protection of the Virgin Mary for this plant, and this is how the milk thistle acquired its scientific name "Silybum marianum". "Silybum" is derived from the Greek word "sillybon", which means white spot, and "marianum" refers to the Virgin Mary.
