Liver Health (Gaia Herbs)
Formula for Liver Support
Liver Health is a powerful liver-support formula that helps fight free-radicals that are generated during stressful engagement with so-called toxins. When a substance is metabolized in the liver, free-radicals are generated; this is a simple fact of nature. By direct antioxidant action, as well as supporting the function of the liver, this formula exerts a powerful influence. The support of healthy tissue is also relevant for a number of herbs in this formula.
Milk Thistle seed has a long history of traditional use; primarily as a support to liver health. In modern times, we understand its ability to support liver tissue from the free-radical stress generated during liver metabolism.
Simply stated, Milk Thistle seed has the following effects on the liver:
A. It is a powerful antioxidant
B. It increases the liver's natural antioxidant system (that is the "mixed function oxidation system" including cytochrome P-450)
C. It helps fight toxins, in part, by strengthening cellular membrane stability
D. It increases glutathione concentrations, resulting in better liver function
It is the combination of Milk Thistle's diverse actions that lend equal powerful support for the liver.
It is interesting to note that the benefits of a number of 'spice cabinet' herbs used from ancient to modern times (such as Black Pepper, Ginger, Cayenne, Garlic, Turmeric, etc.) are being brought more fully to light by modern science. One of these kitchen herbs, Turmeric root, is traditionally recognized to support digestive and liver function. A cousin of Ginger, Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant. It also demonstrates normalizing effects. Like Milk Thistle, Turmeric aids liver function primarily by fighting free-radical oxidation generated during its metabolism. Reducing this stress encourages normalized function of this metabolic organ.
Schizandra berry is a valued kidney and male tonic. Within this system it is often referred to as a 'king'...
