Application:
In cosmetics and diatary supplements:
Phytosterols are pentacyclic triterpens. These secondary plant ingredients encourage cell divison and are important cell membrane components with protective and anti-aging efficacy.
Phytosterols stimulate keratinocyte proliferation and hyaluronic acid synthesis, they have repair property and improve skin elasticity and smoothness. As a result the epidermis is thickened and regenerated which means improved barrier function, reduced transepidermal waterloss and less wrinkles.
The effect applies as well for internal application. As dietary supplement the extract has in addition LDL-cholesterol lowering efficacy by competitive inhibition of cholesterol absorption. Phytosterols display positive efficacy also in case of early benign  prostate hyperplasia,  and prophylactic efficacy is reported against bowel cancer.
In  cosmetic application soy germ extract is recommended  for lip plumper and balm, for anti aging and moisturizing as well as for skin firming and anti-wrinkle products.
