Milk Thistle Oil – freshly cold-pressed in Scotland from Polish seeds
Our milk thistle oil (Silybum marianum) is made the slow way – with care, precision and freshness. We source the seeds ourselves, directly from Poland, and press them gently below 35°C only when you place your order. This ensures that every drop reaches you full of flavour and natural benefits – not something mass-produced and sitting on a shelf.

Health & beauty benefits
Liver support
Silymarin in milk thistle helps regenerate and protect liver cells. This oil is often used as support in conditions like fatty liver, hepatitis or detox after medications, alcohol or rich foods.
Improved digestion
Supports digestive processes, may reduce bloating, cramping and improve appetite.
Cholesterol balance
When used regularly, it may help lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels by increasing healthy unsaturated fats in the diet.
Detox & cleansing
Helps flush toxins from the system – especially useful during or after alcohol, medications or periods of poor diet.
Skin & hair care
Used externally, it soothes irritation, deeply moisturises and supports skin regeneration. Also great for dry, sensitive or sun-exposed skin. May aid in acne, eczema, and healing minor wounds.
Hair, nails, and scalp
Can be used to massage into the scalp, strengthen nails or moisturise dry patches on elbows, hands or feet.
