Description
Tectoridin is an isoflavone found in the flowers of the Pueraria thunbergiana plant. It is also found in the flowers of Pueraria lobata, a common medicinal plant in China.
Explanation
Tectoridin is an isoflavone with estrogen and antiallergic properties.
Tectoridin is metabolized into tectorigenin, an isoflavone with antioxidant properties, by the human gut microbiota.
Tectorigenin is also found in other plants, including Belamcandae Rhizoma, Iris hungarica, and Iris dichotoma.
Isoflavones are found in many plants, especially those in the pea family.
Isoflavones have health benefits for humans, including a possible lower risk of hormone-related cancers, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease.
