Frequently Asked Questions
Does milk thistle 'detox' my liver?
Milk thistle is an antioxidant that supports the liver's own processes. It does not replace the liver's natural detoxification work or treat disease.
Can I take liver support with medication?
Check with your pharmacist — milk thistle can affect how some drugs are metabolised.
