Metagenics Silymarin IC

Metagenics Silymarin IC is a concentrated, standardised milk thistle formula delivering 176.4mg of silybin per capsule — supporting healthy liver function, hepatocellular protection against toxic insult, bile production and phase I and II liver detoxification.

Key Ingredients

• Milk thistle seed extract (standardised to silybin): The most clinically researched hepatoprotective herb — silybin is incorporated directly into liver cell membranes, altering the hydrophobic-hydrophilic interface to shield hepatocytes against toxic damage, while simultaneously increasing intracellular glutathione content and supporting redox status within the liver
• Silybin and bile support: Silybin stimulates bile salt excretion by expanding the endogenous bile salt pool — increasing formation of hepatoprotective bile salts, assisting the phase II detoxification pathway through beta-glucuronidase inhibition, and supporting phase I detoxification modulation
• Standardised high-potency delivery: Standardised to 176.4mg silybin per capsule — ensuring consistent, therapeutic-level delivery of the active constituent responsible for milk thistle's hepatoprotective and detoxifying actions, at a dose meaningful for genuine clinical benefit
