Milk Thistle, also known as Silybum marianum, is a plant native to the Mediterranean region and is now widely cultivated all over the world. The plant can grow up to 5 feet in height and has distinctive milky white veins on its leaves, giving it its name. The seeds of the plant are used for various purposes due to their high medicinal value.
The primary producer of Milk Thistle is the European Union, with countries such as Germany, Poland, and Austria being the top producers.
