How to use milk thistle seed
Milk thistle seed has been used extensively as a herbal remedy for many hundreds of years. Originally, it was used predominantly to treat liver and gallbladder issues, although scientific research has been unable to conclusively verify the effectiveness of milk thistle seed for these uses.
Some other studies have indicated that the seed may benefit those suffering from diabetes. Although the evidence isn’t entirely conclusive, some studies have found that the seed can help lower blood sugar levels in those with type 2 diabetes. It may also help lower cholesterol levels, improving heart health.
