Products Description：Pine-Derived Phytosterols 98%
YTBIO now offers Pine Tree Phytosterol, with raw materials imported from South America and a purity of 98%. This product uses β-sitosterol as its main component, derived from pine trees (including pine needles, bark, and wood), and is a natural phytosterol raw material suitable for dietary supplements, functional foods, and pharmaceuticals. Unlike soybean-derived phytosterols, pine-derived phytosterols have unique characteristics in terms of composition, safety, and applications.
What are the differences between pine sterols and soybean-derived phytosterols?
Content: Pine sterols contain over 70% β-sitosterol, which is higher than that found in soybean sterols.
Stantanols: Pine sterols naturally contain a certain proportion of stertanols, which are more hydrophobic than ordinary sterols.
GMO Issues: Pine-derived phytosterols do not have GMO controversies, thus avoiding common soybean allergen issues.
