Silymarin : allies against diabetes
Silymarin is the active ingredient of the plant known as Milk Thistle, and is one of the most powerful and protective substances known.
The most prominent effect of silymarin on the liver appears to be its ability to stimulate protein synthesis. This supports the liver’s ability to replace damaged cells with new ones. It is also interesting to know that silymarin not produce the same stimulatory effect on malignant tissue.
This substance has a strong antioxidant effect.
Silymarin accelerates the recovery of the liver inflammation caused by viruses, drugs and toxic substances. Its action is so powerful cellular regeneration that has got to heal livers with cirrhosis. You can prevent the formation of gallstones and lower cholesterol levels in bile.
“It can help people with type 2 diabetes control their glucose levels and reduce the level of glycation. In a study related to diabetes was found that after four months at a dose of 200 milligrams of silymarin three times a day for patients with type 2 diabetes achieved a considerable reduction in their levels of blood glucose. Also significant reductions in other measures such as the glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (the so-called “bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides. ”
Dr. Claudia Angélica Soto Peredo found that silymarin:
