Description
Artichoke Extract 500 mg 120 Tablets from Planetary Herbals may support the liver and digestive health. The Cynara cardunculus or artichoke has been written about since the time of the ancient Romans‚ in 4th century B.C. It has also been a part of the Mediterranean diet for ages and is known to help with digestive health.
Modern research has shown that artichokes contain a compound called cynarin that could stimulate the production of bile. This could in turn promote healthy digestion‚ relieve occasional indigestion‚ increase fat metabolism‚ support bladder health‚ and promote cholesterol wellness.
The artichoke globes and leaf extracts are known to promote digestive health. The leaves are rich in antioxidant polyphenolic compounds such as cynarin‚ luteolin‚ and chlorogenic acids. Antioxidants seem to fight the disease-causing unstable molecules called free radicals and could help prevent diseases.
The polyphenols obtained from the artichoke extracts might stimulate the production of bile. Bile is made in the liver and stored in the gall bladder. Its main function is to helps in the digestion of fat and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins along with supporting the overall digestive health. Artichokes might also help maintain healthy cholesterol levels and may help remove excess cholesterol from the blood.
