S.A.T. (Silymarin/Artichoke/Turmeric) 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Liver disease and liver damage are affecting an increasing number of Americans every year, so why not take better care to prevent it? The liver is famous for being able to function even when it’s damaged. But as resilient as it is, your liver also works as your body’s main detoxification center, producing the chemicals necessary for digestion and much more.

With all of these tasks it’s no wonder why you would want to take a supplement to help support your liver. S.A.T. from Thorne Research does just that, through its three main ingredients: milk thistle extract, artichoke extract, and turmeric extract.

• Milk thistle extract contains flavonoids, a type of antioxidants widely used to help protect liver cells from free radical damage and promote proper liver function.
• Because milk thistle contains silymarin, it prevents against glutathione depletion. Glutathione depletion is often attributed to excessive alcohol use, overuse of acetaminophen (Tylenol), and other exposure or consumption of chemicals. One study even showed that milk thistle helps protect the liver from metal and drug poisoning.
• Artichoke extract is used to improve digestion as well as reduce cholesterol. Some studies have found it may protect the liver or even induce the body to regenerate liver tissue.
• Turmeric has healing properties similar to milk thistle’s, and contains curcumin, the bioactive compound found in the Indian curry spice turmeric, which has strong antioxidant properties that make it well known as an anti-inflammatory agent.
