What are the physiological functions of phytosterol esters?

Phytosterol esters have a variety of physiological functions, including but not limited to the following:

Antioxidant effect: phytosterol esters have high content in plant cells and have good antioxidant effect, which can effectively prevent plant cells from oxidative damage.
Antibacterial function: Phytosterol ester has antibacterial function, which can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, thereby preventing the formation and spread of pathogens.
Antiviral function: phytosterol ester can inhibit the reproduction of the virus, thereby effectively preventing the disease caused by the virus.
Anti-inflammatory effect: phytosterol ester can promote the rapid healing of the wound surface, and also has a certain relief effect on inflammation.
Regulate immune function: phytosterol esters can promote the development and operation of the body's immune system, thereby helping the body to resist the invasion of bacteria and viruses.
Improve skin quality: Phytosterol esters can improve skin quality, reduce skin pigmentation, increase skin elasticity, and reduce the production of wrinkles. In addition, phytosterol esters can also help relieve joint pain and inflammation and improve joint function.
Cholesterol reduction: Plant sterol esters can reduce serum cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, thereby reducing blood lipids.
Anti-platelet aggregation: phytosterol esters can inhibit platelet aggregation and are commonly used in clinical prevention and treatment of cerebral thrombosis, myocardial infarction and other diseases.
Increase capillary circulation: phytosterol esters are mainly extracted from plants, and proper use can increase capillary blood circulation, which is good for health.
It should be noted that although phytosterol esters are natural plant ingredients, they still need to be used under the guidance of a doctor to avoid adverse reactions. At the same time, it is also very important to maintain good living habits, maintain adequate sleep and avoid staying up late.
