[What is Phytosterol?]

Phytosterols are compounds found in plants that resemble cholesterol. The National Institutes of Heath report that there are over 200 different phytosterols, and the highest concentrations of phytosterols are found naturally in vegetable oils, beans and nuts. Their benefits are so recognized that foods are being fortified with phytosterols. At the supermarket, you may see orange juice or margarine advertising phytosterol contents. After reviewing the health benefits, you may want to add phytosterol-rich foods to your diet.

[Benefits]

Cholesterol-Lowering Benefits

The most well-known, and scientifically proven, benefit of phytosterols is their ability to help lower cholesterol. A phytosterol is a plant compound that is similar to cholesterol. A study in the 2002 issue of “Annual Review of Nutrition” explains that phytosterols actually compete for absorption with cholesterol in the digestive tract. While they prevent the absorption of regular dietary cholesterol, they themselves are not easily absorbed, which leads to a total lower cholesterol level. The cholesterol-lowering benefit does not end with a good number on your blood work report. Having lower cholesterol leads to other benefits, such as a reduced risk for heart disease, stroke and heart attacks.

Cancer Protection Benefits

Phytosterols have also been found to help protect against the development of cancer. The July 2009 issue of the” European Journal of Clinical Nutrition” offers encouraging news in the fight against cancer. Researchers at the University of Manitoba in Canada report that there is evidence that phytosterols help prevent ovarian, breast, stomach and lung cancer. Phytosterols do this by preventing the production of cancer cells, stopping the growth and spread of cells that are already in existence and actually encouraging the death of cancer cells. Their high anti-oxidant levels are believed to be one way phytosterols help fight cancer. An anti-oxidant is a compound that fights free radical damage, which is negative effects on the body produced by cells that are unhealthy.

Skin Protection Benefits

A lesser known benefit of phytosterols involves skin care. One of the contributing factors in the aging of the skin is the breakdown and loss of collagen — the main component in connective skin tissue — and sun exposure is a major contributor to the problem. As the body ages, it is not able to produce collagen as it once did. The German medical journal “Der Hautarzt” reports a study in which various topical preparations were tested on skin for 10 days. The topical treatment that showed anti-aging benefits to the skin was the one that contained phytosterols and other natural fats. It is reported that phytosterols not only stopped the slow-down of collagen production that can be caused by the sun, it actually encouraged new collagen production.

If someone says their bee pollen is freeze dried, they are most likely an advertising firm and know very little about bee pollen. Freeze dried does not apply to bee pollen, it applies to Royal Jelly. They are merely copying what they heard and they think sounds good. Example; The term Pasteurization is used with milk but does not apply to beef.

The technical term for freeze dried is lyophilization. When you see someone use the term freeze dried with bee pollen, what they are doing is simply dehydrating the pollen.

Since no one can get a patient on honey bee products, some companies are very resourceful in coming up with reasons why their bee pollen is the best. Bee Pollen is a very fine like powder which the honey bee packs into a nugget using an enzyme the honey bee makes so they can carry back to the hive. The important question you should ask, how fresh is the pollen.

It’s amazing how people copy information and use it and it’s bogus. Here’s an example. “BEE POLLEN: you could experience an allergic reaction, especially if you’re allergic to bees or anything else” First, get this clear. You can have an allergic reaction to bee pollen so read instructions and test your body by starting with a small amount and building up slowly. Now that we have that out of the way. You have seen on YouTube people incorrectly say, ” if you are allergic to (bees) bee stings, you can be allergic to bee pollen. That is a myth. The best way to explain is; Being allergic to bee stings has nothing to do with consuming bee products. The best example I can think of is, people who are lactose intolerant, can’t drink milk but they can eat beef. People who are allergic to eating eggs can eat chicken. I am not a doctor, not even close as we are beekeepers. be cautious and monitor your health.
