(Cirsium vulgare) Bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare (savi) tenore) is a biennial forb that was introduced to North America as a seed contaminant and is now widespread. Gumdrop-shaped flowers are pinkish to dark purple in color and 1 Â½ to 2 inches in diameter. The flower bracts are somewhat tapered and covered with spines.
Milk Thistle is used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to clear heat and to detox and soothe the liver and increase bile flow. Studies have shown in vitro (in the lab) and in animals that it has hepatoprotective properties that defend the liver from toxins.
