NATURALLY GROWEN FLAX HULL LIGNANS

Flax, sometimes known as linseed, is one of the earliest domesticated crops and has been cultivated for over 7,000 years. Only more recently has the health minded industry taken a good close look at flax. Its medicinal benefits are plentiful and its applications numerous.

There are two types of flax. One is grown for oil production and the other is grown for its fiber. The latest research suggests that it is the presence of lignans in the ground flax that boast the most benefit.

Lignans are a phytonutrients found in both the seeds and grains and are a type of carbohydrate. Flaxseed yields over 800 mcg./g of lignans whereas flaxseed oil has fewer than 2% of lignans. This particular lignan is a phenolic compound or polyphenol called secoisolariciresinal glucoside (SDG). Their significant ability to prevent cancer is recognized by the National Cancer Institute. In addition to having anti-cancer properties SDG’s also have anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungus properties.

Lignans can be found in both animals and plants and are converted in the colon by friendly bacteria. Increased immune system function is effective against numbers of diseases. Lignans contain phytoestrogens that mimic estrogen in the body and can be used as an alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy. Increased phytoestrogens have the potential to lower breast and colon cancer. Recent research indicates that lignans may be able capable of inhibiting the formation of tumors.

Whole food is the safest and most natural form of nutrition. Because flaxseed lignans are extracted from the whole flaxseed, they are an excellent source of phytoestrogens. Consistent use of flaxseed lignans has the ability to increase bowel function up to 30% among other benefits.
