Flaxseed lignans are phytonutrients found in whole grains, nuts, seeds, fruits, and vegetables. Flaxseed has the highest lignan content of any plant or food, and has a higher antioxidant (ORAC) value than any other fruit or vegetable published in the USDA database.**
While regular flaxseed contains the embryo of the seed, our product contains only the hull, where the lignan is found, yielding a much higher lignan content than regular flaxseed.

Lignans have hormone balancing properties. When digested, SDG lignans are converted in the body to enterolactone and enterodial. These two mammalian lignans are linked to better health in both men and women.
