March is a classic time of year to do a detoxing cleanse if you have not already done one in this new year. Winter is starting to fade into the distance, and energetically, it is a good time to clean up in preparation for spring.
Milk Thistle is one of the world’s great detoxing and liver cleansing herbs. In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), the Liver is associated with the Spring. While milk thistle can be used any time of year, synergistically, spring is one of the best times to use it for general liver maintenance, repair, and cleansing.
Milk thistle is the only herb that can repair, nourish, and replace damaged liver cells with healthy new ones. This makes it uniquely important for treating a wide range of liver-related conditions.
And did you know milk thistle can also be used to lower cholesterol, treat type II Diabetes, and aid kidney and liver function post-chemotherapy?
Milk Thistle, which is not an uncommon herb, is considered a weed, but it is also a potent and important medicine.
