Otsikko: Flax hull lignans Kirjoitti: sideman - 23.05.2008 08:18:37 http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20040408.htm Specifically, the lignans of the flax help balance hormonal levels. There is a powerful lignan within the hull called secoisolariciresinol diglycoside (SDG). When the hull is separated, the content of SDG becomes very concentrated. It is the SDG lignan that seems to help balance estrogen levels in the body. This is the reason why scientists have regarded it seriously by testing to see the influence of flax on cancer, an estrogenic condition. Estrogen causes cells to proliferate, hence, during pregnancy estrogen causes a baby to grow. Excess estrogen is not necessarily a good thing (there is “good” estrogen and “bad” estrogen). For example, we are exposed to too much estrogen in the environment (pesticides) and through our diet (simple carbohydrates tend to increase insulin production, which in turn, increases the wrong kind of estrogen in our body). Mitenkähän tuo "hull" pitäisi oikein kääntää suomeksi? Otsikko: Vs: Flax hull lignans Kirjoitti: Emelia - 23.05.2008 11:10:23 hull = kuori, runko, palko
