Herbal combination to support the liver. Includes extracts of artichoke, dandelion, milk thistle, bupleurum, and snowberry. Artichoke is used in herbal medicine to increase bile flow and relieve digestive disturbances. Milk thistle is used in herbal medicine to support liver function. Liv Complex contains a combination of herbal extracts, including artichoke and milk thistle, to support normal liver function. Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) seed extracts contain silymarin, which helps maintain liver cell health through various mechanisms, including inhibiting free radical production, increasing the formation of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione in liver cells, and supporting hepatocyte protein synthesis. Research shows that artichoke extracts promote bile production and reduce liver damage caused by exposure to the hepatotoxin carbon tetrachloride (CCl4).
