Lignan Flax Seed
Lignans found in flax oil are classed as phenolic compounds. They form a fibrous chain acting as toxin repositories for insoluble and spent wastes in the intestinal tract and colon. Research has shown that patients with breast or colon cancers measure a dramatic lowering of lignan content in bodily wastes, suggesting that phenolic lignan compounds act to assist in modulating immunological response and detoxification of multiple metabolic processes.
