How do plant sterols lower cholesterol?
Plant sterols have a similar structure to cholesterol and are thought to compete with it for absorption in the gut. When the plant sterols are absorbed, this reduces the amount of cholesterol entering the blood stream. Any unabsorbed cholesterol is removed as waste, and overtime, this is thought to reduce the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in the blood. LDL is also known as ‘bad cholesterol’.
We accurately quote the level of free, pure plant sterols in each of our plant sterol tablets 100%. We've chosen to formulate our plant sterols in tablets, not capsules, since they can deliver higher levels of active ingredients.

"Tablets too large"
By Christine Stewart

Verified Purchase
I usually buy the He*******n product which contains the same amount of sterols. As the Natures Best product was on special offer I bought some but find they are much larger and very difficult to swallow. Half the time I''m unsuccessful and have to throw them away. If He*******n can do it, why can''t you.?
