Description
Artichoke Extract is a dietary supplement formulated to support liver health, healthy cholesterol levels, and healthy triglyceride levels. Artichoke Extract is available in capsules from Natura-Genics®.
Key Ingredients
Artichoke is often considered a vegetable, but it is actually a type of thistle. It has been used for hundreds of years for its medicinal properties. It is rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The extract contains high concentrations of the compounds found in the plant, making the extract just as beneficial.
Benefits of Artichoke Extract
Artichoke leaf extract (ALE) has shown potential as a hepatoprotective agent. The potential hepatoprotective properties of ALE may support a healthy liver. It also increases the production of bile, which promotes the removal of harmful toxins from the liver. Some studies have shown that those who consume artichoke extract have reduced inflammation in the liver. This may be due to the antioxidants cynarin and silymarin found in artichoke.
• Promotes Healthy Cholesterol and Triglyceride Levels
Healthy levels of fats in the body are important for optimal well-being. Studies have shown that artichoke may promote decreased levels of “bad” LDL cholesterol and reduced levels of triglycerides. Artichoke may even have the ability to promote a boost in “good” HDL cholesterol. This may be due to the antioxidant, luteolin, found in artichokes, which supports healthy cholesterol levels.
