Report Description
Latin America Phytosterols Market Outlook
The Latin America Phytosterols Market size was valued at USD XX Billion in 2022 and is expected to surpass USD XX Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 3.38% during the forecast period, 2023 – 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to rising demand for functional food and dietary supplements.
Plant sterols, also known as stanol esters, are naturally occurring compounds in plants with a structure that is similar to that of human cholesterol. When taken in meals, they compete with cholesterol for absorption in the gut. Phytosterols are abundant in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, soybeans, mushrooms, vegetable oils, lentils, and nuts.
Plant sterols are found in around 300 milligrams (mg) per day in a conventional western diet, and between 300 and 500 mg per day in a vegetarian diet. In persons with hypercholesterolemia, this dose is deemed insufficient to produce the required decrease in LDL.
Phytosterols are added to several commercially produced foods, such as juices, yoghurt, breakfast bars, salad dressings, and margarine, during the production process. Supplements containing phytosterols can be found at a variety of health food stores, supermarket stores, and pharmacies.
People with poorly managed high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) as well as individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia, an inherited genetic condition are among major consumers.
One of the primary reasons driving the market is the rising frequency of diseases such as hypercholesterolemia and cancer.
The use of herbal and mineral extracts as food additives is also increasing demand for the product. Phytosterols are an important component of dark chocolate, which is a favorite delicacy among the general public.
