{"product_id":"gaidoyragkatho-apoxirameno","title":"Dried Milk Thistle – Silybum marianum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDried Milk Thistle\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eSilybum marianum\u003c\/em\u003e) consists of dried plant parts with a dry, herbaceous, slightly bitter character. At Spices Bazaar, it is presented based on its actual form and available botanical identity. Historical or traditional references provide useful cultural context, but are not turned into therapeutic promises. As a natural raw material, it may vary in color, cut, and aroma intensity from batch to batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDried Milk Thistle – identity and form\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical reference \u003cem\u003eSilybum marianum\u003c\/em\u003e helps avoid confusion with related species and similarly named products. The form consists of dried plant parts. We do not assume a country of origin, variety, species, or concentration of natural constituents beyond what is documented for the batch. Correct identification is especially important when different plant parts have different uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCharacter and practical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile is dry, herbaceous, and slightly bitter. The dried plant differs from individual seeds, and even more so from standardized silymarin extracts. It is not presented as a liver treatment or a “detox” product. The cut and form affect its intensity and how it can be used. A fine powder has a much larger surface area than whole leaves, wood, or root, and therefore behaves differently in each preparation. Where it is used as food, always follow the labeling for the specific batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDifferent forms, different rules\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDried plant, resin, essential oil, tincture, capsule, and standardized extract are not interchangeable. The concentration of natural constituents and the safety profile can vary significantly. For this reason, we do not copy dosages or claims from one form to another. The exact product name and intended use take precedence over any general information.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality and proper storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe do not assess a natural product solely on whether its color is exactly the same as that of a previous batch. Harvesting, drying, grinding, and time affect its appearance. Use a clean, dry utensil, close the package immediately, and protect the product from steam. If transferring it to a jar, be sure to keep the original label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated product in the catalog\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor comparison, see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gaidoyragkatho-sporoi\"\u003eMilk Thistle – Seeds\u003c\/a\u003e. The related product is not necessarily a substitute. It may differ in species, plant part, cut, or concentration. Comparing them helps you choose the right form for the specific application and avoid common mix-ups between similarly named products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA little Spices Bazaar secret\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark the date of opening on the container, and do not mix a new batch with leftovers from an old one. For products with a strong aroma, use a tightly sealed container to prevent nearby spices and herbs from becoming scented. This simple practice significantly improves the organization and consistency of a professional or home collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore tightly closed in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture, heat, and strong odors. People with an allergy to Asteraceae should exercise caution. In cases of liver disease, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or medication use, seek professional advice before regular use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover more flavors, aromas, and stories from around the world.\u003c\/strong\u003e Follow Spices Bazaar on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/www.SpicesBazaar.gr\"\u003eFacebook\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Aiodigoseyexias\"\u003eYouTube\u003c\/a\u003e for new arrivals, recommendations, and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spices Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54895946170695,"sku":"SB-HER-53891-050","price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54895946203463,"sku":"SB-HER-53891-100","price":4.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 g","offer_id":54895946236231,"sku":"SB-HER-53891-500","price":22.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 g","offer_id":54895946268999,"sku":"SB-HER-53891-1K","price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/1805\/5751\/files\/gaidouragkatho-kommeno-silybum-marianum-katopsi-spices-bazaar.webp?v=1793056133","url":"https:\/\/spices-bazaar-2.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/gaidoyragkatho-apoxirameno","provider":"Spices Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
