γ-Sitosterol

Description:
γ-Sitosterol, also known as beta-sitosterol, is a plant sterol with the chemical formula C29H50O. It is a white, crystalline solid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform. This compound is primarily found in various plant sources, including vegetable oils, nuts, and seeds, and is known for its cholesterol-lowering properties. γ-Sitosterol has a similar structure to cholesterol, which allows it to compete with cholesterol for absorption in the intestines, thereby reducing overall cholesterol levels in the body. It is also recognized for its potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In addition to its nutritional significance, γ-sitosterol is used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to its ability to enhance skin hydration and barrier function. Its safety profile is generally favorable, with low toxicity reported in various studies. Overall, γ-sitosterol is an important bioactive compound with various applications in health and wellness.
