We explored how silibinin, derived from the milk thistle plant, affects Candida albicans, the yeast that can lead to infections. Our research demonstrated that silibinin treatment significantly increased reactive oxygen species, triggering a cascade of events that caused yeast cell death, or apoptosis. Notably, we observed that mitochondrial calcium overload plays a vital role in this process. While silibinin shows promise for combating yeast infections, our findings highlight the importance of further research to fully understand its potential and mechanisms.

We investigated how silibinin, a compound from milk thistle, impacts yeast infections, specifically targeting Candida albicans. The study revealed that silibinin demonstrates antifungal properties by damaging the fungal plasma membrane and preventing biofilm formation.
After testing various concentrations, we observed significant membrane disruption at doses over 100 µg/mL. This shows that silibinin not only affects the yeast's structure but also hampers its ability to form protective biofilms.
Overall, while promising, more research is needed to fully understand silibinin’s effectiveness as a widespread treatment for yeast infections.

Effective for liver
My favourite bad. Milk thistle enhances bile excretion and improves gastrointestinal function, increasing the liver's protective abilities against infections and toxins. I suffer from biliary dyskinesia, so I take it regularly. It works very well and does not trigger allergies.

Helpful for skin
Milk thistle possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory qualities. This supplement aids in treating acne and other skin inflammations. Furthermore, it stimulates bile production, helping to prevent gallstone disease and bolstering the immune system against viral infections. I found it beneficial; I liked it.👍
