Promotes cell health. Lignan is a type of plant hormone, called phytoestrogen, similar to that of the human hormone estrogen. It can be found in unrefined grains, legumes, and certain vegetables, but flax is a particularly rich source of lignan. Because it is a hormone, lignan can influence sex hormone production, metabolism and biological activity. It has numerous biological properties ranging from antioxidant to immune supporting properties. Epidemiological data associate a high intake of lignan with positive effects on the growth and regulation of various cells and tissues, including breast, endometrium, prostate, and colon cells. Source Naturals has developed LIGNAN EXTRACT with your wellness in mind, to help support your healthy cardiovascular system. Since phytoestrogen is similar in structure and function to the estrogen hormone in humans, lignan may have the same positive effect in helping promote normal cholesterol levels by lowering lipoprotein. It also regulates LDL receptors, which may help lower LDL cholesterol levels in the blood. Because of their phenolic structure, lignan has powerful antioxidant properties, reducing lipid peroxidation and increasing the antioxidant reserve. Source Naturals has formulated this highly concentrated natural extract as an important key to helping you unlock your health potential. Though most flax products are derived from flax seed oils, LIGNAN EXTRACT is made from the hulls of the flax seed to provide you with up to 30 times the vital nutrients in flax, ensuring that you obtain sufficient amounts of this important dietary requirement.
