Finessa Milk Thistle: Silymarin Amounts and Evidence
Finessa milk thistle appears twice in the 450 mg Liver Health blend: as milk thistle powder in third place and as silymarin 80% in fifth. By label order, the powder can weigh at most 150 mg and the silymarin line at most 90 mg. Research does not prove a liver benefit.

On the panel01
Where is milk thistle on the Finessa label?
It appears in the Liver Health blend, a 450 mg total across five lines.
The order is dandelion, turmeric, milk thistle powder, artichoke extract and silymarin 80% (as silibinin). Parts are listed from most to least by weight, and single amounts are not required (21 CFR 101.36 (proprietary blends)). So the third line weighs at most 450 divided by 3, which is 150 mg, and the fifth at most 90 mg. That is our arithmetic, not a lab test.
Scale02
How much silymarin is in Finessa?
At most 90 mg from the dedicated line, plus a share of the powder. The real amount is not printed.
Per LiverTox, as summarized in our source notes, milk thistle products often hold 250 to 750 mg of silymarin per dose, taken two or three times a day (NCCIH, Milk thistle). The bars compare one scoop's ceiling with research amounts.
The evidence03
What does NCCIH say about milk thistle?
It says there is not enough high-quality evidence for definite conclusions (NCCIH, Milk thistle).
| Topic | Finding |
|---|---|
| Liver disease | Results conflicting or too limited |
| Two NCCIH-funded studies | No benefit from silymarin |
| Product quality | Label amounts can differ widely |

Who should be careful with Finessa milk thistle?
People allergic to ragweed, daisies, marigolds or chrysanthemums, and anyone on medicine.
The common effects are bloating, nausea and gas. Pregnancy and nursing data are thin (NCCIH, Milk thistle). Herbal products can also injure the liver (LiverTox, Herbal and dietary supplements overview).
Decide05
Is Finessa milk thistle worth it?
Only if you value the full blend, because the amounts are unproven and hidden.
Keep taking prescribed medicine, and ask your doctor first (FDA, Mixing medications and supplements). The ingredients guide covers every line.

FAQ06
Questions about milk thistle in Finessa
Is silymarin the same as milk thistle?
Silymarin is the main active mix in milk thistle extract (NCCIH, Milk thistle). Finessa lists both milk thistle powder and silymarin 80%, so the two lines overlap.
Does Finessa milk thistle treat the liver?
No. It is a supplement, not a liver medicine, and NCCIH reports no benefit in two funded liver studies (NCCIH, Milk thistle). See a doctor for liver symptoms.
Why is the amount hidden on the label?
US rules let a proprietary blend list only its total weight, with parts ordered by weight (21 CFR 101.36 (proprietary blends)). That is why we show ceilings.
