Features
  • The Silybum marianum extract is composed of three isomers: silybin, silidianin and silicristin, which belong to the class of substances called flavolignans.
  • Silymarin has been widely studied for anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, as well as protection against photodamages.
  • Recent studies on skin oxidation caused by pollution show Silymarin offers a powerful shield against urban environmental stress.
