Some information about the benefits of Milk Thistle (silybum marianum) for the liver and spleen.
In the late 1500s, a well-respected herbalist named Gerard wrote that milk thistle was the best remedy grown in nature for all melancoly disease. The word melancoly is from the Greek, "black bile", which at that time referred to any liver or biliary derangement. It has been used successfully throughout history for conditions of the liver and spleen.
