In this short video, we’re going to talk about the amazing health benefits of milk thistle on your liver. 

Milk thistle is like an incredible liver detox. Research suggests it has some powerful benefits because of the phytonutrient in milk thistle called silibinin.

According to this research, the benefits of milk thistle include: 
• Helps repair insulin resistance and fatty liver
• Removes hydrogen peroxide from the body’s tissues
• Acts as an anti-inflammatory
• Helps protect against chemotherapy
• Contains anticarcinogen properties
• Acts as a powerful antioxidant
• Nullifies cytokines
• Acts as a strong antifibrotic
• Supports the gallbladder and production of bile
• Has potent antiviral properties

I recommend getting the freeze-dried form of milk thistle supplement—this is the most potent and pure form. 

Give it a try and see if it helps you.

From 28 I had a 'heavy' liver and periodic recently this had got worse through stress and a bad diet when my girlfriend got cancer. She convinced me to try milk thistle which I had used way back when. Within two weeks my heavy liver was gone and my eyes were white again. My energy is back and I'm exercising again. My girlfriends cancer is in emission too so all is good.

This saved my dog's life. Her liver enzymes were off the charts and she had entered liver failure. The vet said nothing else could be done for her and she would pass within 24-48 hours. We loaded her up on milk thistle and made her homemade food that was supposed to help support the liver in addition to giving her the prescription pills everyday. Two weeks later her liver had become manageable. She received milk thistle twice a day for the rest of her life, 5 years after we almost lost her. When I was diagnosed with fatty liver last year I started taking milk thistle and went on a clean keto diet. My last fibroscan showed it had completely repaired. Thank you so much for all your videos that have helped me so much.

Milk thistle kept me from pickling my liver when I lost my husband of 34 years to an auto accident. No amount of alcohol takes that pain away but I sure tried, a handle in 3 days X months, years. Milk thistle has helped me get past that painful time

Cool. I’m part cherokee and I’ve been taught this about milk thistle all my life. I’m glad modern medicine is finally catching up!!

Started using milk thistle and ACV 3 years ago to reverse my fatty liver and it worked like a charm when I was told by other doctors there wasn't anything I could do about! It took about 2 years but well worth it.

In my early 20s I had a doctor advice me to monitor the health of my liver. It is part of my annual health check up. Every year my liver test results was healthy . I felt like it was a waste of time and money and let my doctor know about. Fast forward to 33 years later, I was diagnosed with NAFLD. Because I did the liver test every year, I’m sure my NAFLD was less than a year old. The year that I was diagnosed with NAFLD, like most people I searched the web for solutions. That’s where I found Dr. Berg’s channel. I followed his advice on how to eat healthy with IF. The following year as usual did my annual health check up and was happy to find out that I didn’t have NAFLD anymore. It took me about 11 months to get rid of it.

Wish I could recommend. this more than once! This amazing herb brought me back from a Tylenol overdose. And opened my mind to other natural remedies that were only studied in Europe at that time. Tylenol should not be thought of so lightly. It has dangerous side effects. Like death and severe liver damage.

milke thistle grows wild like crazy in middle Mississippi. I've come up huge open fields of it near Hattiesburg, MS. Also grows in Montana - but only in part of the year.

I’ve been on Milk Thistle for years. I take it everyday and truly believe it’s gotten me and it’s keeping my liver in such good health. I use to have a fatty liver diagnosed by a doctor. Trust me it works !!!

Here’s one for you. I had a PET SCAN for anal cancer and that’s when my fatty liver showed up. My surgeon recommended I see a Gastroenterologists. I was reluctant because 2 Gastroenterologists had been treating me for hemroids for 6 months which was actually anal cancer, long story. So I went to yet another Gastroenterologists with the results of my PET SCAN and he just sluffed it off like no big deal. I’ve been doing research on the web for years and knew about Milk Thistle. So i quizzed him after he said nothing could be taken except lose weight. So I was specific, ever heard on Milk Thistle, nope. I give up with
Traditional doctors all they know are big Pharma pill pushing .

Milk Thistle also helps with digestion!
It helped me eliminate heartburn !

[leejimmy]

I finished a course of antibiotics which likely impoverished my liver, and now I have to take thyroid meds. My liver will surely thank me for taking milk thistle.

I have Gilbert’s syndrome and used to suffer from the fatigue and brain fog associated with it. Milk thistle pulled me out of it. Liver numbers are normal now and haven’t had symptoms for 5 years. Highly recommend along with keto and IF

I was really amazed seeing it's result, after around one week the hives those I get because of bile duct issue or by liver issues just stopped. My constipation decreased I started feeling more energetic and could eat those food which I couldn't hav for a long time because I couldn't digest them. I hav just bought the second file.Thank you Dr.Berg....thank u, ❤️

Milk Thistle works well and improves liver function, but kidney health as well! I have been using it literally for years!

[keksterbojester]

Finally I've been wanting this video for a long time. Milk thistle took my fatty liver and made it normal. My liver enzymes dropped over 100 points back to normal.

[reml]

It would be informative if Dr. Berg would give us the minimum and maximum levels of the the product to take and how long it could be taken etc, so it will be easy for us to decide. This is for every recommended vitamin or medicinal in other videos as well. Thanks

[justpassingthrough]
