Holland & Barrett Cholestaguard Plant Sterols - 60 Tablets

Beta-sitosterol is a plant sterol, a type of compound found naturally in plants. It has a structure similar to cholesterol and can help block cholesterol absorption in the gut.

Plant sterols work by competing with cholesterol for absorption in your digestive system. This can lead to less dietary and biliary cholesterol being absorbed, thus helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.

The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of around 0.8g of plant sterols. The product information suggests this can be achieved with regular consumption. Always follow the dosage instructions on the packaging or consult a healthcare professional.

It is advised not to exceed the total dietary intake of 3g (3,000mg) of phytosterols per day from all sources, including foods and supplements. Always follow the recommended dosage or consult a healthcare professional.
