Lignans & Prostate Health

An increasing body of evidence points to the benefits of lignans in the maintenance of prostate health and suggests that enterolactone may have direct inhibitory effects, associated with cancer cell growth and signaling.

Research has shown that enterolactone may compete with E2 for the type II estrogen receptor, induce sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and may also play a role in steroid metabolism and synthesis thus reducing proliferation of hormone dependant prostate. In addition, HMRlignan™ is a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger.
