Pine phytosterols (PHYTOPIN®) (sterols: 20g per 100g of product)

Phytosterols are natural lipid compounds found in plants, structurally similar to human cholesterol. PHYTOPIN® is a patented form of phytosterols extracted from the bark of maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) from the Landes region of France, standardised to 20 g of sterols per 100 g of product. This well-defined plant origin ensures a reproducible composition and rigorous traceability. The phytosterols in PHYTOPIN® act by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the primary factor involved in the miniaturisation of hair follicles characteristic of androgenetic alopecia. Clinical studies conducted on this patented extract have documented its ability to contribute to reducing hair loss of androgenetic origin, in both men and women. Supplementing with PHYTOPIN® represents a natural approach for individuals looking to support the density and vitality of their hair. Its standardised concentration of active sterols allows for doses consistent with those used in reference clinical studies.
