Other names: Aibis, Hibiscus, Mallow Rose, Roman Mallow, Marshmallow

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


Milk thistle, also known by the names Ajbish, Ibishek, Mallow Rose, Roman Mallow, or Marshmallow, is a herb with mucilaginous leaves and crowns, and has been valued for its medicinal properties for centuries. This plant is native to southern and western Asia, but is now cultivated all over the world. It grows up to 1.2 metres tall and is characterised by its beautiful pale pink flowers, which bloom in August and September. Its root, leaves and flowers are rich in mucilage, which has a beneficial effect on the human body.

Milk thistle is known for its mucopolysaccharides, which have the ability to relieve inflammation and irritation of the mucous membranes, and is therefore used in many medicinal preparations. In the pharmaceutical industry, the root of the plant is used to make marshmallows, which are known for their healing properties for the throat and mouth. In addition, the fenugreek is also often found in cosmetic preparations where it acts as an emollient, softening and moisturizing the skin. It is also helpful in the treatment of indigestion, dry cough or sore throat. It is also traditionally used to treat wounds and burns, as it speeds healing and reduces inflammation. Fenugreek is also a component of some herbal teas that are recommended for relieving inflammation of the digestive tract. Due to its effects, this plant is very popular in both medicine and cosmetics.
