Did you know that simple plant foods contain powerful compounds that can significantly lower your risk of heart disease? This video explores lignans—a type of phytoestrogen found in flax seeds, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables—and how they combat chronic inflammation to protect your cardiovascular health.
Scientific research, including a major study of over 200,000 people, shows that a higher intake of lignans is linked to a 15% lower risk of coronary heart disease. Learn which foods are rich in these beneficial compounds and how adding them to your diet can support your long-term well-being.
