Flax Hull Lignans to Treat Cancer

Discarded for years or used for commercial products, flax seed hulls may hold the secret to save millions of lives and possibly cure cancer. But technically it’s not the hulls or the flax seed that hold the miracle, but the lignans, or lignan precursors, found within the husk. Removed by a recently developed cold mechanical process called MCP, it takes around 2 gallons of flax to obtain a teaspoon of flax hull lignans.

Scientists have discovered there are 27 different forms of lignans, technically phytonutrients, derived from flax and they all work together for incredible healing results. When ingested on a regular basis studies have confirmed, lignans from flax seed hold anti-tumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-oestrogenic, immune boosting, and cholesterol mediating properties. Lignans from flax have been shown to reduced breast, prostate, lung, and colorectal cancer loads by killing cancer cells and slowing cancer’s growth; reduce prostate PSA and prevent BPH; reduce C-reactive protein concentrations; assist in lowering blood pressure; suppress atherosclerosis; improve heart health; and protect healthy cells against DNA damage and lipid peroxidation.

In a study by Duke University Medical Research Center they found lignans effective at halting prostate tumor growth. To back this up, there have been multiple reports of men dropping their PSA by 40% or more with only short-term use of lignans. One man with prostate metastases throughout his body reportedly was able to drop his PSA from a high of 94.7 to 26.3 with lignans and proper diet. Then there is a Canada study where women eating flaxseed muffins daily reduced breast cancer cell growth by 34.2%, killed their cancer cells by 31%; and decreased expression of their cancer growth receptor  Her2 by 71% after only one month. In another Canadian study it was determined lignan intake reduced colorectal cancer risk while killing tumor cells. And in a 2008 randomized controlled trial looking at the effects of flaxseed supplementation on men scheduled for a prostatectomy, the men on flaxseed received excellent results.. For 30 days one group was feed 30 grams per day of ground flaxseed. Their conclusion from the trial was that flaxseed was safe and cancer proliferation rates were lower for men using the flaxseed supplementation. Now remember these results were obtained from ground flaxseed and not the more potent and effective form of flax husk lignans.

The principal lignan precursor found within flax hulls is secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) that is converted by intestinal bacteria into two mammalian lignans called enterolactone (EL) and enterodiol (ED). Together these bring incredible ORAC values (the measure of a food’s antioxidant ability) to fight cancer with a value of 19,600 per 100 grams compared to say kale at 1,770 per hundred grams. Flax hull lignans are also considered the richest source of natural phytoestrogens and have been recognized by the National Cancer Institute for their ability to prevent cancer. As with any supplemental product, you will want to discuss flax hull lignan use, interactions, and dosage with an informed doctor. The majorities of people experience no side effects with flax hull lignan supplementation but potential allergic reactions; changes in hormones; decreased clotting; possible constipation; and changes in medications are all things to consider.

Should you decide to explore flax hull lignans as an option, quality product is available online. Just make sure it has been developed through the MCP process, is Non-GMO, and without added chemicals. One source to checkout is: Flax Lignan Health. With the abundant cancer fighting, overall health, and preventative benefits already discovered from years of research regarding flax hull lignans, they are definitely one of the many nature-based, low side effect treatments we should add to our list for clinical trials both as a stand alone treatment and in combination with other products and medications.
