Campesterol
Campesterol is a phytosterol, meaning it is a steroid derived from plants. As a food additive, phytosterols have cholesterol-lowering properties (reducing cholesterol absorption in intestines), and may act in cancer prevention. Phytosterols naturally occur in small amount in vegetable oils, especially soybean oil. One such phytosterol complex, isolated from vegetable oil, is cholestatin, composed of campesterol, stigmasterol, and brassicasterol, and is marketed as a dietary supplement. Sterols can reduce cholesterol in human subjects by up to 15\\\\\%. The mechanism behind phytosterols and the lowering of cholesterol occurs as follows : the incorporation of cholesterol into micelles in the gastrointestinal tract is inhibited, decreasing the overall amount of cholesterol absorbed. This may in turn help to control body total cholesterol levels, as well as modify HDL, LDL and TAG levels. Many margarines, butters, breakfast cereals and spreads are now enriched with phytosterols and marketed towards people with high cholesterol and a wish to lower it. -- Wikipedia.

Phytosterols are plant sterols found in foods such as oils, nuts, and vegetables. Phytosterols, in the same way as cholesterol, contain a double bond and are susceptible to oxidation, and are characterized by anti-carcinogenic and anti-atherogenic properties (PMID:13129445, 11432711). beta-Sitosterol is a phytopharmacological extract containing a mixture of phytosterols, with smaller amounts of other sterols, bonded with glucosides. These phytosterols are commonly derived from the South African star grass, Hypoxis rooperi, or from species of Pinus and Picea. The purported active constituent is termed beta-sitosterol. Additionally, the quantity of beta-sitosterol-beta-D-glucoside is often reported.

Hexacosan-1-ol is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Hexacosan-1-ol can be synthesized from hexacosane. Hexacosan-1-ol can also be synthesized into 24-methylhexacosan-1-ol. Hexacosan-1-ol can be found in a number of food items such as brussel sprouts, broccoli, lemon grass, and lettuce, which makes hexacosan-1-ol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Hexacosan-1-ol is a saturated primary fatty alcohol with a carbon chain length of 26 that is a white waxy solid at room temperature. It is freely soluble in chloroform and insoluble in water. It occurs naturally in the epicuticular wax and plant cuticle of many plant species .

viminalol
Alpha-amyrin is a pentacyclic triterpenoid that is ursane which contains a double bond between positions 12 and 13 and in which the hydrogen at the 3beta position is substituted by a hydroxy group. It is a pentacyclic triterpenoid and a secondary alcohol. It derives from a hydride of an ursane. alpha-Amyrin is a natural product found in Ficus septica, Ficus virens, and other organisms with data available.

henicosan-1-ol
A long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is henicosane in which a hydrogen attached to one of the terminal carbons is replaced by a hydroxy group. It has been isolated from the aerial parts of Siegesbeckia orientalis and from an Italian bread wheat variety, Pegaso, and its 11 near-isogenic lines.
Tetracosan-1-ol
A very long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is tetracosane in which a hydrogen attached to one of the terminal carbons is replaced by a hydroxy group. It has been isolated from a variety of plants, including grape seeds, evening primrose (Oenothera biennis), pitaya fruits (Hylocereus polyrhizus and Hylocereus undatus), and the flowers of Arabian jasmine (Jasminum sambac).
