Silybum Marianum ( St Mary's Thistle )
St. Mary's Thistle contains three principal biologically active compounds, which are known collectively as Silymarin.
This herb has been found to have a wide range of effects on health. The main target of it's action is the liver, helping to protect this organ against damage from alcohol and other toxins as well helping in cases of Jaundice and cholestasis. However it also has been prescribed for pleurisy, problems with the spleen, dyspepsia, gallbladder problems, as antidote to deathcap mushroom poisoning, depression, psoriasis and hepatitis.
L Methionine
Methionine is a sulphur-containing, proteogenic amino acid. It is an essential amino acid. Within the body, the metabolically active form of this amino acid is s-adenosymethionine, which is a methyl group donor in transmethylation reactions. When Methionine is catabolised, cysteine is formed as the liver metabolites.
L Glycine
Glycine is essential in the diet. As the nitrogen from Glycine can easily be exchanged with other molecules, Glycine can be used as a starting point for the synthesis of other amino acids.
L Cysteine
Cysteine, an amino acid is a key molecule in sulphur metabolism in the body. Cysteine also has a sparing effect on Methionine for protecting mucosa linings and helping to protect the body against free radicals.
L Glutamine
Glutamine is one of the proteogenic amino acids. It can be synthesized from glutamic acid, a reaction that is important in the detoxification reaction that helps to remove the toxic ammonia from the body. Glutamine is an intermediate nitrogen, allowing its nitrogen to be transferred to other molecules in transamination reactions.
L Lysine
Lysine is an essential amino acid, one of the groups known as proteogenic. The biologcal active from this molecule is L-lysine, Advanced Medicine Australia Hepatic Detox only uses L amino acid.
L Taurine
Taurine is an amino acid. It is a sulphur-containing molecule found in bile in combination with cholic acid. In the bile Taurine is one of the agents that help to emulsify lipids (fats), assisting their absorption and transport. Taurine assists in regulating the level of bile salt in the gall bladder, reducing the incidence of gall stones.
L Carnitine
Carnitine is important for all tissues that have high-energy demand like the liver. Carnitine has the role as a protective agent for the liver. Carnitine facilitates the removal from mitochondria of short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids that accumulate as a result of normal and abnormal metabolism.
L Glutamic acid
Glutamic acid has its main role is in the transport of potassium in the brain, and in the detoxification of ammonia in the brain. In the liver, it modulates the rate of ammonia detoxification into urea.
Inositol
Inositol is necessary for normal cellular proliferation (cell division). Inositol deficiency may promote fatty liver disease. The impaired release of plasma lipoprotein increases fatty acid mobilization from adipose tissue and enhanced fatty acid synthesisintheliver.
Lecithin
Lecithin is a phospholipid, specifically a glycerophospholipid, which is derived from phosphatic acid. Lecithin supplementation has a protective effect on the liver against fatty liver.
Potassium
The regulation of potassium levels in the body is of crucial importance. One of the ways potassium is regulated is through an insulin-mediated uptake and release from the liver and muscles, helping to regulate the distribution of this molecule between the intercellular and extracellular fluid compartments (Decaux G al, 1988).
Magnesium
Magnesium, a metal, is an essential micronutrient for humans. Magnesium deficiency has been noted when the liver is under environmental stress.
Aspartate
Aspartate in hepatic detox is found as magnesium and potassium aspartate. Aspartate is an amino acid. The main role in the liver is in the urea cycle and in purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis.
Zinc
Zinc is a metal that is essential for growth and development, as it is an important component of many enzymes. Zinc deficiencies increase the susceptibility to some viral infections that attack the liver.
Selenium
Selenium is an essential nutrient for humans. It is an essential component of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which helps protect against oxidative damage in the liver and particularly in the membranes of the red corpuscles.
Folic acid
Also known as folate, folic acid is essential in the body. At least one-half of the folate stores in the body are found in the liver, with the level of these stores being influenced by the dietary intake of this vitamin.
Vitamin B6 and Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate
Vitamin B6 is also known as Pyridoxine. Vitamin B6 and Pyridoxal-5- Phosphate is a water-soluble vitamin. The concentration is mainly found in the liver and kidneys. In the body this vitamin is important as a coenzyme in amino acid metabolism.
Vitamin B12
Also known as cobalamin, or extrinsic factor, vitamin B12 is one of the water- soluble B group vitamins. This vitamin was the first naturally occurring biologically active molecule found to require cobalt as a part of its molecular structure.
Ascorbic acid
Also known as vitamin C, ascorbic acid is a water-soluble vitamin essential for health. As it cannot be synthesized in the body, it must be ingested.
Hesperidin
Hesperidin is a flavone. These are plant pigments that contain flavone ring system. Hesperidin is known as a bioflavonoid, Hesperidin has a range of beneficial effect in the body. Because of their molecular structure, the bioflavoniods are antioxidants, and therefore help to protect tissues against oxidative damage.
Rutin
Rutin, like Hesperidin, is a flavone, also known as a bioflavonoid. Rutin is the most potent scavenger of superoxide anions, more potent than its near relative, Hesperidin. Rutin, together with other antioxidants, is important in protecting us from disease and aging.
Warning
If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare practitioner. Selenium is toxic in high doses. Selenium in dietary supplements should not exceed a daily does of 100mcg. Not suitable for use by children under 15 years.
