A compound in Milk Thistle seed has been shown to protect the liver from a variety of harmful substances. It can prevent toxins from penetrating the interior of liver cells, while promoting the growth of healthy new cells to repair liver damage. Other compounds in the seed may have a similarly renewing effect on the kidneys, and may even be beneficial for the prostate gland.
