Fresh artichoke leaves and cut artichoke in a botanical still life

Artichoke Leaf Extract and Digestive Comfort

Artichoke leaf extract is often studied for digestive comfort and healthy bile flow.

What the study looked at

Holtmann and colleagues ran a six-week, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicentre trial of artichoke leaf extract in people with functional dyspepsia.

Why it matters for Livana

We use artichoke to support the pathways that help move what the liver processes. Paired with dandelion, it is part of the clearing side of the formula and targets that heavy, bloated feeling after meals rather than relying on milk thistle alone.
