Milk thistle is a plant known since the time of Hieronymus Bosch (595), being used for liver conditions since the 18th century. The extract of this plant supports the health of the liver and gallbladder.

Turmeric extract with 95% Curcuminoids (the highest concentration, a high-efficiency extract) improves liver activity, affecting its capacity to detoxify xenobiotic chemicals (chemical compounds that are present in the body but not produced by it). The ability of curcuminoids to inhibit a range of factors, such as Nuclear Factor-kappaB, which modulates many proinflammatory and profibrotic cytokines, along with their antioxidant properties, gives them high efficacy in liver disorders. Curcumin attenuates liver damage induced by ethanol, thioacetamide, iron overdose, acute subchronic and chronic cholestasis, carbon tetrachloride, intoxication, and cirrhosis.

Dandelion root cleanses the liver of toxins, prevents its deterioration and supports its proper function. It has a choleretic-cholagogic effect, i.e. it stimulates bile secretion and contributes to its release into the duodenum. Therefore it is very useful in biliary colic (gallbladder crisis) to release bile from the gallbladder.

Artichoke has a choleretic-cholagogic effect (stimulates bile secretion and excretion), stimulates and improves digestion, protects liver cells. It has diuretic, depurative and blood-purifying actions. It enhances cholesterol excretion through bile and helps normalize blood cholesterol and triglyceride values.

Vitamin C contributes to maintaining the normal functioning of the immune system and to normal energy metabolism, to the normal functioning of the nervous system, and to the maintenance of psychological health. It helps protect cells against oxidative stress, reduces tiredness and fatigue, supports normal immune function, and regenerates the reduced form of vitamin E. It also increases iron absorption.

Zinc is extremely important due to its presence in every tissue of the body and its direct involvement in cell division, also being a powerful antioxidant. Zinc affects protein synthesis and is necessary for the proper function of white and red blood cells. Zinc is involved in maintaining normal hormonal levels. The highest amounts of zinc are concentrated in bones, pancreas, kidneys, liver and retina.

 Vitamin C and zinc contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system and to protecting cells against oxidative stress. 

Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism, normal formation of red blood cells, normal functioning of the immune system, and regulation of hormonal activity.
