Lamberts Milk Thistle 2500mg 60 Tablets is a vegan food supplement containing a standardised extract of milk thistle (Silybum marianum). Each tablet provides 80mg of silymarin, the active principle of the plant, so you know the amount of silymarin you get from one tablet a day.

Key Features

• Standardised to 80mg silymarin: Lamberts guarantees 80mg of silymarin in every tablet, so the amount does not vary from tablet to tablet.
• Made from mature seeds: The extract comes from mature milk thistle seeds. It takes 2.5g of whole milk thistle to produce the 100mg of extract in each tablet, which is why the label states 2500mg.
• One tablet a day: Take 1 tablet daily with a meal. A 60-tablet pot lasts 60 days at this dose.
• Vegan and UK-made: The tablets are suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and Lamberts states they are made in the UK to pharmaceutical standards of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).
