Beta-Sitosterol NEW

Beta-Sitosterol is a kind of steroid which exists in nature, although the content is not much, it has high application value. They're called sterols because they're solid and they're macromolecular alcohols. It is the main component of unsaponifiable substances in oils and fats. According to the different sources, sterols can be divided into three categories, namely animal sterols, plant sterols and bacterial sterols.

Physiological effect

Beta-Sitosterol are considered to be mild free radical scavenger, which partly explains the active role of phytosterols in maintaining cell membrane stability, inhibiting inflammation, preventing atherosclerosis and anticancer. Anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects Phytosterols have anti-inflammatory, anti-infection and inhibition of bacterial and fungal reproduction, and their anti-inflammatory effects are also one of the earlier discovered functions.

Beta-Sitosterol have a wide range of biological functions in medicine and food science. In animal production, the scientific use of plant sterols can promote the growth of animals, improve the health of the organism, improve the quality of animal products, and play a positive role in reducing the breeding cost and increasing the economic benefit. As a functional additive, phytosterols have broad application prospects in feed industry. At present, the mechanism of action, effective dosage form and dosage, absorption efficiency and application technology of plant sterols to improve animal growth and health have not been fully clarified, and a large number of in-depth studies are needed to lay a foundation for its scientific and rational application.

Application:

1 β-sitosterol and β-sitosterol derivatives are widely used in medicine, food, cosmetics, feed and other industries because of their unique biological and physicochemical properties.

2 has the effects of lowering cholesterol, relieving cough, expectorating phlegm, inhibiting tumor and repairing tissue. It is used for type II hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis and chronic bronchitis, and also for early cervical cancer and skin ulcers. Large doses can cause loss of appetite, diarrhea, gastrointestinal pain and other gastrointestinal reactions. Ulcers caused by osteomyelitis should not be used before the primary disease has healed. Lower leg ulcers with lower limb varicose veins must be treated at the same time.
