Therapeutically, a long list of benefits have been recorded for the artichoke

Can artichokes really help to reduce cholesterol, boost liver function, reduce weight, beautify the skin and more?

Through the centuries, literature has attributed many therapeutic and health benefits   to the artichoke. From the time of  Hippocrates and Hesiod, Pliny, Trentinius and Licht to present day researchers, its therapeutic value is now scientifically documented.

Long thought to be, among other functions, a diuretic, a skin cleanser, a deodorant and an aphrodisiac, investigators Drs. LeClerc and Brell submitted a well documented report to the Society of Therapeutics in Paris in 1929 confirming claims to others and theirs on the benefits of the artichoke to the liver, proposing that it be counted among tonic medications and regenerators of the liver.

Other researchers have demonstrated the value of the Cynarin (a constituent of artichokes), for its properties that assist in:

beautifying the skin (Dr. Rovesti, Director of the International Committee on Cosmetics)
reducing cholesterol by interfering with its manufacture in the liver
jaundice
gout
a regimen of weight reduction

The most dramatic property of the artichoke, however, is how it alters your taste buds. Artichokes make everything that they are cooked with, or that follows taste better, taste sweeter, and more scrumptious.  This has been documented by a researcher of Yale University and published in the prestigious journal, 'Science'.
