Metanarrative and postmodern philosophy -- the wiki based discussion suggests that "a metanarrative is an untold story that unifies and totalizes the world, and justifies a culture's power structures. Postmodernism has been described as an "incredulity toward metanarratives" (Lyotard 1984). Metanarratives are not usually told outright, but are reinforced by other more specific narratives told within the culture. Examples of metanarratives might include the story of the emerging utopian society ... " see:

According to Flora K, Hahn M, Rosen H, Benner K.'s article Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) for the therapy of liver disease Am J Gastroenterol. 1998 Feb;93(2):139-43; Comment in:Am J Gastroenterol. 1999 Feb;94(2):545-6. "Silymarin, derived from the milk thistle plant, Silybum marianum, has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for diseases of the liver and biliary tract. As interest in alternative therapy has emerged in the United States, gastroenterologists have encountered increasing numbers of patients taking silymarin with little understanding of its purported properties. Silymarin and its active constituent, silybin, have been reported to work as antioxidants scavenging free radicals and inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Studies also suggest that they protect against genomic injury, increase hepatocyte protein synthesis, decrease the activity of tumor promoters, stabilize mast cells, chelate iron, and slow calcium metabolism. [Activities arising from the barrier island side --- see PMID: 9468229 [PubMed]. See also Latest books on: Milk thistle:
