Description

Blessed Thistle, through its bitter properties, increases the flow of gastric juices relieving dyspepsia, indigestion and headaches associated with liver congestion. British and German Pharmacopoeias recognize that 'bitters', including blessed thistle, stimulate bile flow and cleanse the liver. Blessed thistle, as a "bitter vegetable drug" is considered to be a medicinal agent used to stimulate appetite, aid digestion and promote health. Certain bitter flavonoids found in the leaves, stems and barks of many plants, particularly the oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), have indeed been shown to strengthen the walls of blood vessels and capillaries thereby improving overall blood circulation. OPCs have also been shown to bind to collagen and prevent its degradation by enzymes and free radicals and aid in the repair of damaged collagen and elastin. Blessed thistle extracts also have anti-bacterial activity and antinflammatory activity.

We prepare our Blessed Thistle extract from the whole flowering herb (without root) of Cnicus benedictus plants which have been Certified Organically Grown on our own farm without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.

To assure optimal extraction of Blessed Thistle's bioactive compounds, the plants are hand-harvested while in full flower, are carefully shade-dried to retain their full color & aroma, and are then thoroughly extracted.

Our Blessed Thistle is never fumigated or irradiated.
