Vegetable oil is one of the foods rich in phytosterols, and corn oil has a higher phytosterol content. Added demonstration properties: This product is a white powder, and can also be in ester form and soluble in grease. Pharmacological uses: It has medicinal and health-care values ??such as preventing coronary atherosclerosis and promoting the degradation and metabolism of cholesterol; important intermediates for the synthesis of steroid drugs such as vitamin D3; hair growth, hair care and skin nutrients; dispersion in the chemical textile industry Agents, softeners, antioxidants, etc. Phytosterols are physically purified from corn and soybeans and have the characteristics of high nutritional value and strong physiological activity. Phytosterols may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by lowering cholesterol. It is widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics, animal growth agents and paper processing, printing, textile and other fields. It is especially common as a food additive in Europe and is widely used in food to reduce human cholesterol. Phytosterols have strong anti-inflammatory effects on the human body. They can inhibit the body's absorption of cholesterol, promote the degradation and metabolism of cholesterol, and inhibit the biochemical synthesis of cholesterol. They are used to prevent and treat coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. It has obvious curative effect in treating ulcers, skin squamous cell carcinoma, cervical cancer, etc.; it can promote wound healing, promote muscle hyperplasia, and enhance capillary circulation; it can also be used as an inhibitor of the formation of gallstones. In addition, phytosterols are also important raw materials for the production of steroid drugs and vitamin D3. The U.S. FDA has made specific instructions on the correct labeling of plant sterol esters and plant stanol esters respectively. Phytosterol esters can be labeled as follows: "Each serving of food contains at least 0.65g of plant sterol esters, combined with other low saturated fatty acids per day. , take it twice with a low-cholesterol meal, and the total daily dosage is no less than 1.3g of phytosterol esters, which can reduce the incidence of heart disease. Phytosterols have high permeability to the skin, can maintain moisture on the skin surface, and promote skin health. Metabolizes, inhibits skin inflammation, can prevent sunburn erythema, skin aging, and has the effects of hair growth and hair care. It can be used as a w/o emulsifier for the production of creams. It has good usability (good auxiliary properties, Smooth and non-stick), good durability, not easy to deteriorate, etc. Phytosterols have good antioxidant properties and can be used as food additives (antioxidants, nutritional additives); they can also be used as raw materials for animal growth agents to promote animal growth and improve animal health. Healthy.

Corn oil is one of the foods rich in phytosterols. First, there will be certain losses after refining. Arowana advocates "moderate refining" through research and development based on the interests of consumers, adding an appropriate amount of phytosterol lipids, and retaining more health-promoting ingredients such as phytosterols and vitamin E. The first edible oil brand on the market to launch phytosterol corn oil, Arowana phytosterol corn oil, has a phytosterol content of 10,000 ppm, which is almost the same as natural crude corn oil.
