简介
Enterolignans (enterolactone and enterodiol) are phytoestrogens that are formed by the colonic microflora from plant lignans. They may reduce the risk of certain types of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Initially, only secoisolariciresinol and matairesinol were considered to be enterolignan precursors, but recently, new precursors such as lariciresinol and pinoresinol were identified. We recently developed a lignan database including 4 major enterolignan precursors. We used this database to estimate lignan intake in a representative sample of Dutch men and women participating in the Dutch Food Consumption Survey, carried out in 1997–1998. Median total lignan intake among 4660 adults (19–97 y old) was 979 μg/d. Total lignan intake did not differ between men and women; thus, the lignan density of the diet was significantly higher (P < 0.001) in women than in men. Lignan intake was strongly skewed …
