Silymarin是「水飛薊（Silybum Marianum）」的精 華萃取物，源自於印度和巴基斯坦的喀什米爾山區。水飛 薊的莖枝和葉片被切開時會流出乳白色的汁液，所以歐美 人士將其命名為「Milk Thistle（乳汁樹）」。水飛薊的 另一個名稱「Mary's Milk（聖母瑪利亞的乳汁）」則是 以民間流傳的故事命名，大意是說聖母瑪利亞餵母奶的時 候不小心滴了一滴在水飛薊上面，所以水飛薊的汁液才會 變成乳白色。

Silymarin含有silybin、silydianin、silychristin 這三種成份，其中以silybin保護肝臟的功效最顯著。 Silymarin能夠直接緩解肝臟部位的發炎反應，因而降低 肝臟的損傷程度。Silymarin可以直接中和毒性物質的毒 性；也可以與毒性物質一起競爭肝臟的結合位質，所以能 夠減少肝臟對毒性物質的吸收份量。

處方用藥：務必請醫師診斷治療

Silymarin目前在台灣是一種處方用藥，必須經由醫 師診斷、開立處方後才能服用，主要是作為肝功能失調病 人之治療用藥。Silymarin的建議服用劑量約為一天200至 400毫克的總量，分成三至四次服用在飯前服用。由於 Silymarin是一種溫和的保肝治療劑，必須長期服用才看 得出成效，但服用過量時會發生頭痛、心情煩躁、腸胃不 適等副作用，因此服用Silymarin時，千萬要從最小有效 劑量開始，讓身體逐漸習慣之後，再增加劑量。

使用方法: 每次兩顆，每日一至三次, 任何時間服均可。

Milk thistle, a tall weed with prickly leaves and purple flowers, is, according to this story, known in scientific circles as silybum marianum. The plant was named for its milky sap, which led some ancient people to believe it could induce milk flow in nursing mothers. Milk thistle is a source of vitamin C, iron and flavonoids, but its most medically active component is silymarin, a compound found in the seeds.

Silymarin (Silybum marianum), also known as Milk Thistle, is an herb that is well-documented in early traditional herbal medicine. Studies abroad and in the U.S. have indicated that contituents in Silymarin may help to support healthy liver function.*
