campesterol
campest-5-en-3ß-ol
Campesterol is a phytosterol, a plant sterol structurally similar to cholesterol. Phytosterols are found in plants' cell membranes, and are often consumed through plant-based foods.
Campesterol has a chemical structure similar to cholesterol, with a four-ring core structure. It is classified as a type of sterol, which is a subgroup of steroids.
Applications
Phytosterols, including campesterol, are known for their potential health benefits, specifically their cholesterol-lowering properties. Campesterol competitively inhibits the absorption of cholesterol in the human intestine. This competition leads to a decreased absorption of dietary cholesterol from food, resulting in lower levels in the bloodstream.
Packaging
Purchase pure campesterol in powder form in 1 x 1mg and 1 x 10mg packaging from Avanti Research.
