Milk thistle, also known as Silybum marianum, is a flowering plant that belongs to the Asteraceae family. It is native to the Mediterranean region and was widely cultivated in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. The plant is also known as Mary’s thistle, holy thistle and lady’s thistle.
Milk thistle is an annual or biennial plant that can grow up to 2 meters tall, with a base that can sometimes spread up to 1.5 meters in diameter. The stem of the plant is grooved and somewhat woolly, and its leaves are oblong to lanceolate in shape, with spiny edges and milky white veins.
The fruit of the milk thistle consists of small, dry, single-seeded achenes that are black and have a simple, long white pappus surrounded by a yellow basal ring. The seeds are the usable part of the plant and are often used for medicinal purposes.
Milk thistle has been used for centuries for its numerous health benefits. Die Pflanze hat antioxidative und entzündungshemmende Eigenschaften.
The main producers of milk thistle are in Europe and the United States, with Germany being the largest producer of the plant. Milk thistle is widely available in the form of dietary supplements and can be taken as a tea, tincture or capsule. It is important to note that milk thistle can interact with certain medications, so it is always best to consult with a health professional before taking it.
