[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.

How to fade acne scars face with a simple, natural homemade whitening mask! So easy and chap, try out this skincare DIY!
********************** FAQ! *************************

“How long do I have to leave this mask on for?”
- Only about 10-15 minutes. You could leave it on for longer, but generally masks really only need to stay on for 10-15 minutes at a time.

“How often should I use this mask?”
- I would say 1-2 times a week should be sufficient. I have used it for a month straight before, but I do not recommend that! You need to judge for yourself what your skin can handle.

“How long does it take to WORK? When will I notice a difference in my skin?”
- Personally, I noticed a difference the first time I used it. This mask will NOT help scars that are deep in the skin (‘pot hole’ acne scars), but it will have an effect on hyper-pigmentation (red scars & marks). You should notice a difference over 2-3 months with continued use. Keep in mind that hyper-pigmentation does naturally fade over time, too.

“Can I use baking POWDER?”
- Nope! Baking powder is something different, so don’t use it!

“What about baking SODA?”
- Yep, sure can! Baking soda and bi-carb soda are the same thing, just called differently depending on the country you are from (in Aussie land, it’s called bi-carb soda, in America land it’s called baking soda)

“I can’t find TEA-TREE OIL anywhere? Where do I get it from?”
- I got mine from a supermarket in the same aisle band-aids and medications are, so try there. Otherwise, try your local drug store, pharmacy or chemist, as they should have it. It is an antiseptic, and can be used to clean wounds!

“Do I have to use tea-tree oil?”
- Not at all! It is an ‘optional extra’. I use it because I like how it has anti-bacterial properties, which is great if you have active pimples. But it is definitely not required!

ACNE & SKIN CARE VIDEO LINKS!

“How to : Remove deep acne scars”

“BEST drugstore acne products & treatments 2012/2013!”

This video is based on one I watched by Secret Life of a Bio nerd over a year ago (I can’t seem to find the video now tho, if you find it let me know!)

I have tried this for quite a number of months, and at one point I was putting this on pretty much every day for a month! I do not recommend that unless you have very severe scarring and you know what your skin is like.

Also, I usually use this mask with no water, just lemon juice, but for the sake of the video I used water. Again, know your skin type, don’t do something that causes a reaction or something your skin cannot handle!

A little about me:

In short, I’m a YouTube addicted procrastinator. At some point I decided to start making videos instead of just watching them, and here we all are, many years later and only slightly wiser. I’ve also been #blessed with adult hormonal acne, so a lot of my videos deal with all the fun stuff that comes along with that, like acne scarring and acne treatments. But since this is my personal channel, you’ll also find vlogs and chit-chat videos, which will probably all sound much the same as this blurb. So, thanks for reading, and if you like what you see then I’ve got more words and pictures on my blog https://www.jessbunty.com

My Skin Type: oily and acne-prone. I suffer from hormonal acne along my jawline, chin and neck.

A note about links: Some links I use are affiliate links. I only encourage using links to products or services I personally back. If you use my links, you’re helping to support the growth of this channel and the content I make here, and I cannot thank you enough!

A condensation (or dehydration) reaction is when water is removed in the process of joining two monomers to form a polymer. Examples are:

Glucose + Glucose becomes Maltose + water
Maltose + Glucose becomes Polysaccharide + water
Glycerol + 3 Fatty acids becomes Triglyceride +3 water molecules
Amino acid + Amino acid becomes Dipeptide + water
Dipeptide + Amino acid becomes Polypeptide + water

A hydrolysis reaction is when water is used to split a polymer into its constituent monomers. Examples are:

Maltose + 1 water becomes 1 Glucose + 1 Glucose
Polysaccharide + water becomes Maltose + 1 Glucose
Triglyceride +3 water molecules becomes Glycerol + 3 Fatty acids
Dipeptide + water becomes 1 Amino acid + 1 Amino acid
Polypeptide + water becomes Dipeptide + 1 Amino acid
