Metabolite Identification
Common NameEnterodiol
DescriptionEnterodiol is one of the most important lignan-type phytoestrogens identified in serum, urine, bile, and seminal fluids of humans and animals. Phytoestrogens are a diverse group of compounds found in many edible plants that have, as their common denominator, a phenolic group that they share with estrogenic steroids. This phenolic group appears to play an important role in determining the estrogenic agonist/antagonistic properties of these compounds. Phytoestrogens have been categorized according to their chemical structures as isoflavones, lignans, and coumestans. Enterodiol is formed by bacteria in the intestinal tract from the plant lignans matairesinol and secoisolariciresinol, which exist in various whole-grain cereals (barley, rye, and wheat), seeds, nuts, legumes, and vegetables (PMID: 12270221 , J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci. 2002 Sep 25;777(1-2):289-309.). Enterodiol is a biomarker for the consumption of soy beans and other soy products.
