What it is

Desmosterol is a sterol & brain supplement. Desmosterol is the immediate biosynthetic precursor to cholesterol and a significant membrane sterol in the developing and adult brain. Used in adult dosing protocols in India and internationally, it is sold as a single-ingredient supplement.

How it works

Desmosterol is highly enriched in brain and is a ligand for nuclear receptors (LXR) regulating lipid metabolism and inflammation, with roles in neural membrane function. Effects are dose-dependent and typically measurable within research compound.
