Beta sitosterol

Other names: Sitosterol

Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)


Beta sitosterol, also known as sitosterol, is a natural ingredient found in many fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and even some types of seaweed. This substance belongs to a group of phytosterols that are structurally similar to cholesterol but have different biological effects. Beta sitosterol is widely used both in the food industry and in health and beauty products.

One of the most common applications of beta sitosterol is in the food industry, where it is added to several types of foods in order to lower cholesterol levels. Here, beta sitosterol is often found, for example, in margarines, yogurts, dairy products or cereals designed to lower cholesterol. It is important to note, however, that although beta sitosterol can help in cholesterol reduction, it should not be considered as a substitute for medical treatment in people with high cholesterol levels. In addition to the food industry, beta sitosterol also appears in some cosmetic products, where it is valued for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. In cosmetics, it is often used in skin creams, serums or lip balms, where it helps to relieve skin irritation and has anti-aging properties.
