Swanson processes artichoke leaf into a standardized extract, with 250mg per capsule. The extract is standardized to caffeoylquinic acid, one of the characteristic plant substances of the artichoke. One bottle contains 60 capsules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat artichoke is\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe artichoke (Cynara scolymus) is a thistle-like plant from the Mediterranean, belonging to the composite family. The large, spiny flower bud is eaten as a vegetable, but for supplements, the leaf is mainly used. The artichoke leaf has a distinctly bitter taste, which is characteristic of the plant and is related to the plant substances it contains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStandardized leaf extract with caffeoylquinic acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product contains an extract of the artichoke leaf, standardized to at least 2.5% caffeoylquinic acid, including the substance cynarin. Standardization means that each capsule provides a fixed, equal amount of this plant substance, so that the content from capsule to capsule is constant. Each capsule contains 250mg of artichoke leaf extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eArtichoke in herbal tradition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eArtichoke supports digestion*. In addition, artichoke supports liver function*. These two applications align with the traditionally known role of the bitter artichoke leaf around digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe capsule and what is in it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the artichoke leaf extract, the capsule contains microcrystalline cellulose as a plant fiber, dextrin, calcium palmitate, and silica. The capsule itself is made of gelatin and is therefore not suitable for vegans. The recommendation is one capsule, one to three times a day, with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Health claim awaiting European approval.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Swanson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49393281270098,"sku":"Swanson-097","price":9.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/artichoke.jpg?v=1725528224","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/artisjok-extract-250-mg-80-capsules-swanson","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
