What is Chitosan?
Chitosan is an amino polysaccharide, produced from the deacetylation of chitin obtained from crustaceans and insects. The diverse biological activity of this polymer has been demonstrated by a vast number of assays conducted in animals and a few clinical studies in humans. Therapeutic applications have been proposed for chitosan because of its properties such as antioxidant activity, cholesterol, and triglyceride trapping, and antibacterial and hypoglycemic effects for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. This chapter presents the general benefits of chitosan to human health that have validated its potential as a food supplement.
