1. Introduction of Octacosanol
Octacosanol is a world-recognized fatigue material with unique physiological functions. Studies have confirmed that octacosanol enhances physical strength, energy and endurance; improves stress, body metabolic rate, and body oxygen utilization rate; lowers serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and reduces systolic blood pressure.
Therefore, octacosanol is a new functional food additive that can be widely used in various health foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and animal feeds, and has achieved encouraging results in a series of experiments.
2.Source of octacosanol
There are very few free octacosanol in nature, most of which are in the form of fatty acid esters in natural products such as cane wax, wax, wheat germ oil, beeswax and insect wax. It is reported that cane wax is rich. The octacosanol, which is between 5% and 15%, is a high quality natural raw material for the preparation of octacosanol.
