/ Silymarin / Milk Thistle Extract is a botanical extract derived from Silybum marianum seeds, standardized to Silymarin. With CAS registry number 22888-70-6, this ingredient belongs to the Antioxidant & Liver/Metabolic Support category of weight management actives. Hepatoprotective flavonoid complex that improves liver metabolic function. Liver is primary organ for fat metabolism, cholesterol synthesis, glucose regulation. Silymarin stabilizes hepatocyte membranes, promotes liver cell regeneration, enhances phase II detoxification. By improving liver function → indirectly improves lipid metabolism, glucose control, metabolic rate. As a B2B manufacturer, Shaanxi Baisifu Biological Engineering Co., Ltd. supplies Silymarin / Milk Thistle Extract in bulk quantities with full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring consistent Silymarin content and regulatory compliance for dietary supplement, functional food, and nutraceutical applications.

Q1: How does liver health relate to weight loss?
Liver is primary fat metabolism organ. Compromised liver = impaired fat metabolism = increased fat storage. Silymarin optimizes liver function enabling efficient fat metabolism.
Q2: Recommended dosage?
140-210 mg silymarin 2-3× daily (280-630 mg/day). Enhanced bioavailability: silymarin phytosome (Siliphos®) 100-200 mg/day.
For complementary weight management formulations, consider combining Silymarin / Milk Thistle Extract with: Berberine, Curcumin, Alpha-Lipoic Acid, CoQ10. Multi-ingredient stacks targeting different mechanisms (lipase inhibition, AMPK activation, thermogenesis, appetite suppression) produce synergistic effects superior to single-ingredient products.
