Description and Uses
Gamma oryzanol is a lipid fraction derived from rice-bran oil. Oryzanol was first isolated from rice-bran oil in the 1950s. Several lipid fractions were isolated from the oil.The third (gamma) fraction isolated was oryzanol.It is made up of a mixture of ferulic acid esters and plant sterols. Similar in structure to cholesterol, the phytosterols and triterpenes that comprise oryzanol include campesterol, stigmasterol, beta sitosterol, cycloartanol, and cycloartenol. Because phytosterols are poorly absorbed, it has been suggested that they may reduce blood cholesterol by inhibiting intestinal cholesterol absorption.In contrast, the ferulic acid portion of gamma oryzanol is easily absorbed into the body's tissues. Ferulic acid also has demonstrated antioxidant properties in vitro.
Gamma Oryzanol is a mixture of 6 substances derived from rice bran oil, including sterols and ferulic acid, called Cycloartanyl Ferulate or Triterpene alcohol ferulate. It has been approved in Japan for several conditions, including menopausal symptoms, mild anxiety, stomach upset, and high cholesterol. In the US, it is widely used as a sports supplement, as well as for reducing cholesterol. gamma oryzanol is widely used as a food additive, pharmaceutical material. In cosmetic area, the application to creams and sunscreens exploiting its skin age resistor function and ultraviolet absorbing effect.
