Info
Lignans are a group of phytonutrients (plant chemicals)
found in seeds and grains. The lignans found in flaxseed
are called secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG)...
nature's richest source of plant lignans. The lignan in
flaxseed is a type of carbohydrate and classed as a phenolic
compound or polyphenol.
There are two general types of lignans - those found in
plants and those found in animals and humans or mammalian
lignans. When plant lignan SDG from flaxseed is ingested, it is
converted in the colon by friendly bacteria to mammalian
lignans - enterodial (ED) and enterolactone (EL). Thus flaxseed
lignan SDG is a precursor to mammalian lignans ED and EL.
