Milk Thistle Benefits

Milk Thistle Benefits

You may better know this healing nutrient as milk thistle. Silymarin is a flavonoid highly concentrated in milk thistle that protects the body from both skin and colon cancer by acting as a powerful detoxifying agent.

The primary use of milk thistle is designed to promote liver, kidney, and functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.  Silymarin has also been therapeutic in the prevention and treatment of cancer cell growth of the skin, prostate, breast, and cervix. (11)

The chemotherapeutic effects of Silymarin are a result of its ability to improve oxygenation in blood cells and promote enzymatic activity of antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione. Silymarin prevents toxins from accumulating in the detoxifying organs of the body, improves their ability to function, and reduces the risk of cancerous cell growth. (11)

Consider taking 200 mg of milk thistle daily to protect your body from carcinogens and inflammation and to lower your risk of developing cancer.  This is another great cancer stem cell treatment option.

Ginger

Ginger

Adding ginger to your tea, meat marinades, and vegetable dishes such as coleslaw and salad dressings is an excellent way to boost the chemopreventive properties of your meals and beverages.

A major compound contained in ginger is 6-gingerol. This phytonutrient decreases peroxynitrite (ONOO-) production, which is a powerful free radical formed by the reaction of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide dismutase (O2-), which wreaks havoc and stress on cells and processes in the body.

As a result, 6-gingerol protects against free radical damage and has exhibited strong neuroprotective properties in research. 6- Gingerol enhances the antioxidant defense system by contributing pharmacological activity to protect cells from carcinogens and cancerous activity. (10)

I recommend adding fresh ground or dried ginger to meat marinades or on vegetable dishes.  It is also a great practice to consume a cup or two of ginger tea every day.  I am also a huge fan of fermented ginger, which is commonly used in Asian dishes such as sushi and in the Korean dish kimchi.

Unlocking your body’s detox potential – the crucial role of lymphatics

Lymphatic Drainage Program

  • Your lymphatic system is crucial for immune function, fluid balance and detoxification. It removes cellular waste, fights infections and aids in nutrient absorption. Proper lymphatic function is essential for overall health
  • In our interview, Dr. Perry Nickelston recommends a “Big 6” lymphatic drainage technique, focusing on six primary areas in a specific order: collarbone, jaw, shoulder/armpit, abdomen, groin and behind your knee
  • Lymph nodes cluster around major joints to facilitate movement-based drainage. Lack of movement and poor breathing lead to lymphatic stagnation, causing various health issues like inflammation and recurring infections
  • Regular movement, including walking, rebounding and hanging exercises, is vital for lymphatic health. Combining lymphatic massage with other detox strategies like sauna use enhances overall effectiveness
  • Lymphatic health is closely tied to cardiovascular and brain function. Addressing lymphatic stagnation helps with heart health, neurodegenerative diseases and chronic pain management by reducing inflammation and improving fluid dynamics
