Siliphos® silybin
Siliphos® is a patented form of silybin from milk thistle. It combines silybin in a synergistic Phytosome® complex with phosphatidylcholine that allows silybin, the most powerful but most poorly absorbed flavolignan in milk thistle, to be protected from water and pass into the bloodstream and liver faster and for a longer period of time.
Research show that Siliphos® makes silybin over 4 times more available in the blood and 10 times more available in the liver than taking silybin through a typical milk thistle extract.
Siliphos® has been studied for absorption, liver protection during chemotherapy and helps prevent liver damage and further progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is the most common liver disease globally and is characterized by inflammation of the liver due to obesity, diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Silybin itself has also been studied for liver regeneration and liver cleansing and protection from alcohol-related liver damage. In two daily capsules, Liver Supreme delivers the clinically-researched amount of Siliphos® silybin that was used in the major NAFLD study.
Dandelion Root
Liver detoxification support.
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Antioxidant support. Relieves liver-related fatigue.
Phytosome® technology is used to make poorly absorbed plant-source actives
(like curcumin and silybin) more available in the body.
Phytosome® complexes the plant-source active with phosphatidylcholine which:
1) Protects the plant material from water.
2) Allows the plant actives to more easily pass through cell walls for absorption. The end result is that the silybin in Siliphos® is almost 5 times more available in the blood and 10 times more available in the liver, so that the many benefits of silybin from milk thistle can be fully realized.
