Lariciresinol is a lignan, i.e., a type of phenylpropanoids. It is the precursor to enterolignans by the action of gut microflora. Enterolignans are of interest because they are speculated to exhibit beneficial medicinal properties.

Occurrence[]

In food, it is found in sesame seeds and in Brassica vegetables.[1] It is also found in the bark and wood of white fir (Abies alba).[2]
