Milk Thistle Seed (organic) — 2 oz

Organic Milk Thistle Seed is the whole dried seed of Silybum marianum, a traditional herb with a long history of use in food and herbal preparations. The seeds are harvested from the milk thistle seed pod once ripe and dried.

Milk thistle is a tall plant that can grow up to 4–5 feet, with lettuce-like leaves and spiky purple flowers. The seeds have a slightly bitter, oily taste and a faint aroma, making them easy to use in teas, capsules, tinctures, and everyday food recipes.

Whole milk thistle seeds can be sprinkled onto salads, sandwiches, and trail mix, or ground fresh to blend into teas, smoothies, baked goods, and custom herbal recipes.
