Naturally Occurring Cholesterol Controlling Compounds

Phytosterols are naturally occurring sterol and stanol esters found in plant cells that can help regulate cholesterol levels and maintain prostate health. Structurally similar to the body’s cholesterol, phytosterols compete with cholesterol for absorption in the digestive tract, leading to reduced blood cholesterol levels. Furthermore, phytosterols can bind to the prostate gland in men and reduce inflammation, promoting prostate health.

Despite being found in fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes, the average person consumes less than 500 mg of phytosterols daily. This is significantly lower than the 2 g recommended by the National Cholesterol Education Program for individuals with high cholesterol. Incorporating more phytosterol-rich foods in your diet can promote optimal health and well-being.

Safety and Efficacy of Phytosterol Ester-Enriched Margarine and Beta-Sitosterol for Health Conditions

A series of studies have been conducted to evaluate the safety and effects of phytosterol ester-enriched margarine and beta-sitosterol for different health conditions.

One study found that consumption of phytosterol ester-enriched margarine did not significantly alter the faecal short-chain fatty acid and microflora content, faecal bacterial enzyme activity, or serum female sex hormones in healthy normolipidaemic volunteers on a controlled diet.

Another study conducted a systematic review on beta-sitosterol for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia and found it to be effective.

Furthermore, phytotherapy has also been investigated as a treatment option for lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
