Vitamart's Take

Milk thistle is the go-to liver herb, and this capsule keeps it simple: 500 mg of organic milk thistle seed standardized to 70 mg of silymarin, in a vegicap with nothing else added. St. Francis says it is twice the potency of their previous capsule. Two capsules a day means one bottle lasts a month, and the label asks you to stay with it for at least 3 weeks before judging results. If you prefer a liquid, the Milk Thistle Tincture is the alcohol-based alternative; if you want a broader liver blend, look at HepatoDR.

How Milk Thistle Capsules Compares

Capsules vs. Milk Thistle Tincture

The capsules give a fixed, standardized silymarin amount with no alcohol. The St. Francis Milk Thistle Tincture is a liquid extract in organic alcohol that you can dose by the drop.

Milk Thistle vs. HepatoDR

Milk Thistle Capsules are a single herb. St. Francis HepatoDR is a five-herb liver formula built around milk thistle, dandelion and globe artichoke, with Oregon grape and wild yam, available as a tincture or capsules.

Milk Thistle vs. Dandelion

Milk thistle is used to protect liver health. St. Francis Dandelion Capsules are a bitter herb used for digestion and bile flow — the two are often used together.
