Some plant lignans metabolize in man forming mammalian lignans. Both plant and mammalian lignans have shown to possess several biological activity and the research interest in lignans has grown due to the possible health effects. The literature review discusses the biosynthesis of plant lignans, their bioavailability from edible plants, metabolism in man and the health effects of lignans. Also the analytical methods for li...
