Description

Blessed Thistle grows around the world and has recorded uses going back to the middle ages.  Blessed Thistle is  a galactagogue, which means it can help to increase milk production. Other herbs that fall under this category are fenugreek, fennel,alfalfa, stinging nettle and goat's rue. 
Cnicin which is a bitter found in Blessed Thistle had shown evidence of killing bacteria and fungus in recent lab studies. This was just in a test tube,but that is promising.
