Products Description
Plant sterols are physically purified from corn and soybeans, and have the characteristics of high nutritional value and strong physiological activity. Phytosterols can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by lowering cholesterol. Phytosterols are widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics, animal growth agents and paper processing, printing, textiles and other fields, especially in Europe as food additives are very common, widely used in food to reduce human cholesterol.
Sterols, also known as sterols, are cyclopentane polycyclic phenanthrene derivatives. They are important natural active ingredients and natural regulators of cholesterol in the human body. They are experts in the intelligent management of human hormones and are known by scientists as the "key to life". At present, more than 250 sterols and related compounds have been found, which are specifically divided into three categories: plant sterols, animal sterols, and fungal sterols. Phytosterols are widely found in the roots, stems, leaves, fruits and seeds of plants, among which oil-bearing plants are the main natural sources of phytosterols. They are obtained by physical purification and can be widely used in the fields of medicine, food and beverage, cosmetics, animal nutrition and pesticides.

Function
1. Plant sterols has a strong anti-inflammatory effect on the human body. It can inhibit the body's absorption of cholesterol, promote the degradation and metabolism of cholesterol, and inhibit the biochemical synthesis of cholesterol.
2. It is used to prevent and treat coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and has obvious curative effect on the treatment of ulcers, skin squamous cell carcinoma, cervical cancer, etc.; it can promote wound healing, make muscles proliferate, and enhance capillary circulation; it can also be used as bile An inhibitor of stone formation.
3. Plant sterols are also important raw materials for the production of steroid drugs and vitamin D3.
4. Phytosterols have high permeability to the skin, can maintain skin surface moisture, promote skin metabolism, inhibit skin inflammation, prevent sun erythema, skin aging, and have the effects of hair growth and hair nourishment. It can be used as a W/O emulsifier for the production of creams. It has the characteristics of good use feeling (good auxiliary spreading, smooth and non-sticky), good durability, and resistance to deterioration.
