1. Liver protection effect
The core active ingredient of milk thistle extract is silymarin (mainly containing flavonoid lignan compounds, such as silybin and isosilybin), which protects the liver through multiple mechanisms:

Anti-oxidation and anti-lipid peroxidation: neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress damage to liver cells, and enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione.

Stabilize liver cell membranes: inhibit the penetration of toxins (such as alcohol and carbon tetrachloride), maintain cell membrane permeability, and promote liver cell repair and regeneration.

Anti-fibrosis: inhibit the activation of hepatic stellate cells, reduce collagen deposition, and delay the progression of cirrhosis.

Detoxification and metabolic regulation: promote toxin metabolism, reduce the risk of drug-induced liver injury, and improve blood lipid levels in patients with fatty liver (reduce triglycerides and cholesterol).

2. Anti-inflammatory and immune regulation

Silymarin reduces inflammatory response by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway and the expression of pro-inflammatory factors (such as TNF-α and IL-6). Clinical studies have shown that it has a significant improvement effect on inflammatory liver diseases such as viral hepatitis and alcoholic liver disease.
3. Cardiovascular protection
Reducing the risk of atherosclerosis by reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase activity. Animal experiments have shown that it can regulate blood lipid profiles (increasing HDL and reducing VLDL).
4. Anti-aging and skin health

Anti-photoaging: neutralize ultraviolet-induced free radicals, reduce collagenase activity, stimulate collagen and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) production, improve wrinkles, spots and skin elasticity.
Anti-inflammatory and moisturizing: relieve skin problems such as acne and rosacea, and enhance skin barrier function.
5. Other potential functions

Anti-cancer assistance: inhibit cancer cell proliferation (such as prostate cancer, breast cancer), and enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy drugs (such as cisplatin).
Neuroprotection: reduce cerebral ischemic damage and improve cognitive function.
Hypoglycemic:  assist in diabetes management.

1. Clinical liver disease treatment

Used for viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, drug-induced liver injury, cirrhosis, etc. Common dosage forms include tablets and capsules (such as Ligaron, Silybin capsules).

2. Nutritional supplements and liver health care

As a dietary supplement, it is used to protect the liver of people who drink alcohol for a long time, stay up late or have a high-fat diet. Market products are often combined with Silybin phospholipid complexes (such as SILIPHOS®) to improve bioavailability.

3. Functional foods and skin care products

Food industry: Added to liver protection functional drinks, meal replacement powders, etc. to enhance antioxidant and metabolic regulation effects.

Cosmetics: Used in anti-aging essences, sunscreens and soothing products to improve wrinkles, redness and light damage.

4. Animal health and agriculture

As a feed additive, it enhances animal liver function and improves meat quality and egg yolk color.
