Ingredients
100 % Silybum fruitBrew & Taste
Probably because milk thistle is a herb that is distinctive in its effects, it does not need to be distinctive in taste or color. When you cover the crushed fruit with water, you get an almost white, slightly cloudy liquid. The flavor is very subtle, almost nonexistent.
Origins
The plant with the botanical name Silybum marianum is found naturally in the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands and partly in Asia. It is also native to central Europe. Therefore, thistle can also be seen in sunny and local windswept forests. It grows up to 2m. It is an annual or biennial herb with spiny, toothed leaves, dark red to purple flowers, the fruits of which are brown and hard-skinned, less than a 1cm long. It is these that are used in folk medicine and for the preparation of extracts for the pharmaceutical industry.
Only the ripest seeds are collected in late summer. They are dried and used to make oils, tablets, tinctures and tea.
The use of thistle has been known for more than 2,000 years. The ancient Greek physician Disocorides recommended its use, as did the Roman natural healer Pliny.
