WHAT IS MILK THISTLE: Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) is a member of the sunflower family and is characterized by tall erect stems with mottled, toothed alternative leaves. The upper leaves support purple flower heads that are composed of tube-like florets surrounded by thorny spines. It is found throughout Europe and the Pacific Nortwest of the US, although it is indigenous to the Mediterranean. Like othe thistles, the plant protects itself with sharp thorns, which are memorable when brushed against.
For centuries, the entire milk thistle plant has been cultivated for food, most notably in European monastery gardens. The plant contains compounds collectively known as silymarin, which are toxic to livestock but provide the modern emergency antidote to mushroom poisoing in people.
These seeds are pleasant tasting and a good source of protein and amino acids. The powdered form is a convenient way to enjoy this herb in smoothies, yogurt and other foods.
