excellent for flavouring salad dressings, spreads and various
dips. Because of its unique nutritional properties, you can also use it

History
First mentioned in writings from ancient Greece
Probably the earliest mention of the colourful milk thistle is preserved in
the writings of the eminent scientist Theophrastus, who
literally dedicated his life to the herb and its effects. From the oily seeds of
milk thistle and other herbs he developed a purifying tonic that was
prescribed to people with liver ailments.[1,2]
Theophrastus's views were subsequently followed by Gaius Plinius
Secundus, who recorded his findings on the supportive effects of milk
thistle in detail in a natural history encyclopedia called Naturalis
Historia. [3]
The knowledge of these two eminent figures was not wasted
The records served as a starting point for a group of German scientists who
isolated the main active ingredient, Silymarin**, from the seeds **for the first
time. This has been an officially recognised substance since 1968. [1,
2, 3]
Processing method
Cold-pressed
Milk thistle (Silybum marianum L.) is an undemanding herb native to
the Mediterranean. Its beautiful purple flowers give off dry seeds at the end of
summer, from which the resulting oil is extracted. This is done in a
very gentle way – by cold pressing.
Composition and properties
The composition of milk thistle oil consists mainly of unsaturated fatty
acids, of which essential linoleic acid is the most abundant.
Due to the low pressing temperatures and the omission of the refining
process, maximum amounts of valuable bioactive compounds, vitamins,
provitamins and other beneficial substances are preserved in the
resulting oil.
Uses
Salad dressings, spreads, various dips, on bread and „by the spoonful“
on its own.
Milk thistle seed oil has a mild, slightly bitter taste. It
is excellent for flavouring salad dressings, spreads and various
dips. It is also excellent in combination with crusty bread or other
favourite pastries.
It is also suitable for direct consumption „by the spoonful“.
In order to preserve all the ingredients, it is ideal to serve this
oil with cold or chilled food.
Dosage
Daily intake of milk thistle oil: 3–5 ml (1–2 teaspoons). Start with a
dose of 3 ml (1 teaspoon), at least 15 minutes before meals, with a glass of
water. Gradually increase the dose to 5 ml (2 teaspoons) over 14 days.
Caution:
Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. This product is not intended to
replace a varied and balanced diet. Not suitable for children under 3 years of

Bio lisovaný olej z ostropestřce mariánského jsem si oblíbila každé
ráno na lačno spolu s Prawteinem Detol. Blahodárné účinky na játra jsou
poznat třeba tím, že jídlo vám dodává energii a vaše tělo se neunaví
trávením. Používám již více než měsíc.
