MARIAN THISTLE 60 capsules

Silybum marianum

Cardo Mariano is a medicinal plant that has anti-inflammatory, astringent, digestive, diuretic, regenerating and antiseptic properties, which helps in the treatment of nausea, migraines, varicose veins, gallbladder and spleen problems. Its main function is to treat changes in the liver due to silymarin (one of its constituents). This substance acts on the damaged liver cells due to the excess of toxic substances, such as alcohol, regenerating them and preventing further injuries. By facilitating the functioning of the liver, it helps in the elimination of toxins so it is often related to diets to help in the weight loss process and in adapting to increased physical activity.

Fructo-oligosaccharides

Fructo-oligosaccharides are linear oligosaccharides formed by fructose units. They belong to a broader group called fructans, which include inulin and oligofructose. Fructo-oligosaccharides are a good substitute for sugar because they have a small caloric content and provide a sweet taste. In addition, they are a great contribution to the balance of intestinal flora, increasing bacterial biomass and improving intestinal transit.

Microcrystalline cellulose

Microcrystalline cellulose is obtained from vegetable fiber by means of acidic minerals. It is partially depolymerized cellulose, prepared by treatment of alpha cellulose. It has the function of an anti-caking, dispersing, stabilizing and emulsifying agent. It is widely used as a food additive, but also in the treatment of alkaline gastritis due to duodenogastric bile reflux due to the ability of fibers to bind to bile acids.
