What is a Phytosome® brand product?
To be properly absorbed by the body, the active molecules of a herbal compound (bioflavonoids) must first link up with a fatty acid. This natural process usually takes place within the body. Unfortunately, not all the herbal compound is able to link up with fatty acids, resulting in much of the herb’s active ingredients passing out of the body, unused.

Phytosome® brand products put a stop to this wastage. The patented Phytosome® brand process ensures the vital link between bioflavonoid and fatty acid takes place before the herbal supple-ment is taken into the body, improving absorption, increasing biological avail-ability, and enhancing delivery to the tissues. The fatty acid to which active plant ingredients are bound is a natural compo-nent of lecithin, known as phosphatidylcholine (fos-fah-ty-dil-ko-leen).

Milk Thistle
The milk thistle, Silybum marianum, is a tall, purple-flowered plant of Mediterranean origin belonging to the daisy family. Since early Greek times, Milk Thistle seeds have been used to treat liver complaints. During the 1970s, German scientists were able to isolate the ingredient of Milk Thistle seeds that directly protects the liver cells. They called this component silymarin.

Silymarin has a number of unique functions and is a particularly powerful antioxidant/free radical scavenger. It has been found to be particularly effective against the free radicals that cause the liver cells to degenerate. Silymarin also appears to increase one of the liver’s most important detoxification enzyme, glutathione.

Another way the liver can sustain damage is through the action of substances known as leukotrienes. These compounds arise when an enzyme known as lipoxygenase is present. Silymarin inhibits this enzyme, preventing the leukotrienes from attacking the liver. These three effects, working in concert, strongly suggest that the presence of silymarin from Milk Thistle helps the liver’s natural anti-oxidant systems to deal with toxins more effectively.

Silymarin also stimulates the production of protein in the liver. This results in the generation of new cells to replace old or damaged cells. Silymarin is especially effective in the prevent-ion and treatment of liver damage caused by alcohol or toxic chemicals. It may also help to reduce liver damage caused by chronic use of acetaminophen.

The absorption of silymarin is greatly enhanced by the Phytosome® brand process. In one study, the amount of silybin (an active component of silymarin) recovered in the bile within 48 hours of ingestion was 11% for the silymarin, Phytosome® brand group and only three percent for the silymarin group.

Globe Artichoke
The globe artichoke (Cynara scolymus) contains the flavonoid, cymarin, which is similar in composition to silymarin. Cymarin increases blood flow within the liver and promotes liver regeneration. Globe artichoke also reduces blood fats and helps curtail the formation of gallstones.

Turmeric
Turmeric (Curcuma longa), a popular Indian spice, stimulates the flow of bile and is used in Asian countries to help cure jaundice.

Dandelion
The common garden weed, dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) has been used effectively for jaundice and inflammation of the liver. Like the globe artichoke, dandelion may help curtail the develop-ment of gallstones.

Main applications
Helpful when the body is run down or requires general cleansing. Useful for liver comp-laints such as cirrhosis, fatty liver, hepatitis and drug-induced disease.
