Milk thistle extract has long been valued for its role in ensuring healthy liver function, and it is also a powerful antioxidant. This extract consists of silibinin and other similar compounds. Until recently, researchers believed silibinin was the most biologically active ingredient in milk thistle extract. Highly advanced extraction technology has now enabled scientists to isolate silymarin constituents and test their efficacy against various cell lines. Among the compounds tested, a silymarin constituent called isosilybin B proved to be the most efficient in maintaining healthy cell division.

Mega Silymarin with Isosilybin B is the first milk thistle extract to contain standardized, premium-quality potencies of silymarin, silibinin and isosilybin B, providing the full spectrum of milk thistle compounds that promote a healthy liver and prostate.

The botanical extract in Mega Silymarin is a triple standardized milk thistle extract. In addition to an optimal 80% standardization of the main active compounds, silymarin flavonolignans, Mega Silymarin is further standardized to two highly active isomers — silibinin and isosilybin B. Most premium milk thistle extracts are devoid of or lack consistent amounts of the most active flavonolignan isomer isosilybin B.
