Cafestol(CAT: R064589) is a diterpene compound naturally found in coffee beans, particularly in unfiltered coffee varieties like French press or espresso. It is known for its potential health effects, particularly its ability to raise serum cholesterol levels by influencing cholesterol metabolism. Research suggests that Cafestol interacts with bile acid receptors in the intestines, leading to an increase in LDL cholesterol. Despite this, cafestol also exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-carcinogenic properties, making it a compound of interest in health and biomedical studies. Its dual role in both promoting and protecting against health conditions continues to be a subject of research.
