These might be completely new to you.
But it is worth finding out more about them
because they can have a positive influence on your health.
It is easy to compare plant sterols and plant stanols to cholesterol.
Our cholesterol is
actually split into two types – the good kind and the bad kind.
The plant sterols and
stanols act in much the same way, except they naturally exist in the plant world.
The
plant stanols are the plant equivalent of bad cholesterol (LDL) and the sterols are the
equivalent of good cholesterol (HDL).
This helps us figure out how they work with our
bodies to help our health.
But there is one key thing you should bear in mind.
If you take plant sterols and stanols
regularly you are likely to notice a reduction in the amount of bad cholesterol you have in
your system.
Bad cholesterol can lead to all kinds of health problems both for the short
term and the long term, so it really does pay to try and reduce the levels you have in your
body.
