anyone here eat milk thistle
    #18939409 - 10/06/13 09:38 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

supposedly it use to be a quite popular forage, but fell out of favor in modern times, maybe cause you have to remove all the thorns, maybe just cause its a weed

lots of other stuff people use to eat, that they dont know are considered weeds

i was wondering if one ate it every day in their salads, if it would have any liver protecting properties, or if that only works in the concentrates/extracts 

shit i knew where a bunch of it was growing wildly on some private property, i went to go pick it the other day, and the whole area was buldozed lol

I don't...But I do take milk thistle seeds along with standardized extract in capsules every day. Taking periodic short breaks every month or two.


The seeds, and better yet the seeds in combination with extracts, is the best way to reap the benefits milk thistle provides to the liver. I'm sure eating the foliage regularly would provide some benefit just not to the extent that the seeds do. The seeds have the highest concentration of silymarin, which contains silibinin the primary liver protecting component.



The stuff grows every where around here. I went out and collected the flower tops for the seeds a while back, but it was such a pain in the ass (er, hands) with the thorns for the relatively small amount of seed I was getting. I just took the entire plant instead.

If you're wanting to use the plant for eating its foliage I'm sure there's a certain time of year that's best to collect the plant, as far as best flavor and/or highest concentration of silymarin....I don't know when that would be though...
