Vegetable oils including sunflower oil, soybean oil, and corn oil are the major sources of sterols. Beta-sitosterol is one of many sterols that come from plants. Sterols are a subgroup of steroids and they are amphipathic lipids synthesized from acetyl-coenzyme. The change in consumer food habits along with the increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases are some of the major factors expected to drive the market growth for sterols during the forecast period. Sterols reduce cholesterol absorption, due to their structural resemblance with cholesterol and offer many benefits for human health. According to the WHO, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the leading causes of death globally, and also estimated at approximately 17.9 million die each year. However, the limited availability of sterol-based products in developing economies and fluctuating raw material prices are likely to hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
Sterols Market Segment Analysis – By Type
The Phytosterols segments accounted for approximately 45% of the market share in 2021 and are estimated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Phytosterols, also known as plant sterols, are a family of molecules related to cholesterol. Phytosterols block the absorption of cholesterol and also improve heart health and decrease blood levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol in the body.
