Vegapure® natural plant sterols and sterol esters
Vegapure® natural plant sterols and sterol esters - In the early 1950s, phytosterols were found to prevent absorption of dietary cholesterol. Since then, a persuasive body of evidence supporting the cholesterol-lowering effectiveness of plant sterols and sterol esters has been amassed. Phytosterols and their esters are in a unique position to be able to make an FDA Unqualified Health Claim about the reduced risk of coronary heart disease. This claim enables brand marketers to make cholesterol lowering claims directly on their labels.
