NOW Milk Thistle Extract 300mg

Liver support, detoxification, and mild digestive health.. The milk thistle dose is adequate for general support. However, the dandelion root and artichoke are dosed too low to provide any meaningful benefit. This makes the product less effective than it could be.

7.5/10
VERY GOOD

Milk thistle at 300mg (71% of the 420mg optimal silymarin dose) is solid for liver support. Dandelion root and artichoke are good choices as liver support but both are dramatically underdosed (100mg and 50mg respectively vs 500mg+ and 300mg+ minimums). They add intent but minimal therapeutic value.
