Plant Sterols . . . Could They Be The Most Versatile Supplements on The Market?

 

A new age of nutrient-enriched functional foods has led to the increased renown of plant compounds called phytosterols, or plant sterols. Once unheard of, more and more people are now starting to understand how important these compounds are for optimum and long-lasting health.  What is news to most people though, is that there are now literally hundreds of highly regarded studies and reports that attest to the effectiveness of these natural plant derivatives in maintaining health.

 

You may already be using plant sterols in your practice to help with your patients' cholesterol levels, but are you really aware of the sheer versatility of these powerful plant compounds?

 

Phytosterols, and in particular beta-sitosterol, are now associated with a long list of health benefits. These powerful plant compounds can help to support:

Unfortunately, modern food processing and storage methods mean that our diets are generally found to be deficient in phytosterols.  Once found in natural abundance in plant oils, fruits, vegetables, grains, spices, seeds and nuts, it is now near impossible to ensure optimum intake of these important nutrients simply from our food alone.  Research has shown that a good quality diet should provide 200-300mg of plant sterols per day.  However, analysis of the modern diet shows that this healthy and necessary amount of plant sterols is not being provided.  In addition, our high saturated fat diets tend to reduce the absorption of these beneficial plant constituents.  The fact that our bodies can neither make nor store these important nutrients also adds to the need for supplementation to achieve optimal daily intake.

 

Once again, here at Nutri, we have responded to this need and have made available a plant sterol product which we believe is, quite simply, unrivalled in terms of quality, safety and efficacy.  Don’t just take our word for it though, why not try this fantastic new product for yourself?

 

Sterol 117 uniquely contains plant sterols, pine bark antioxidants and an essential fatty acid complex.  This product provides the recommended daily intake of 300mg of plant sterols (117mg of which is beta-sitosterol) in a single capsule, and is derived from non-GMO soy. The addition of powerful antioxidants protects the body from harmful free radicals, and an essential fatty acid complex supports both the digestive and cardiovascular systems, and assists in the bio availability of these health-promoting nutrients.

 

Each capsule typically contains:

Total Phytosterols            300mg
Plant Phytosterols            183mg
Beta Sitosterols               117mg
Cellasate ™ ¹                    50mg
Enzogenol ™ ²                   20mg  

¹ Proprietary essential fatty acid complex
² Proprietary antioxidant complex from pine bark

 

Sterol is the group name for a range of lipids found in the cell membranes of both animals and plants.  In animals, cholesterol is the most abundant sterol, whereas the term phytosterols refers to the fats that are found in all plants, including fruits and vegetables.  In plants, more than 40 phytosterols have been identified, of which beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol are the most common.  Beta sitosterol is now well regarded as the most remarkable member of the phytosterol family. The phytosterols are structurally very similar to cholesterol, yet obviously there are differences which give them their own unique health properties.  Research has shown that phytosterols are essential nutrients that need to be consumed daily to ensure optimal health.

 

Sterol 117 is virtually unrivalled in the nutritional supplement market. In Sterol 117, the addition of important antioxidants and the unique Cellasate blend increases bioavailability and provides enhanced health benefits compared to standard plant sterol formulations. 

 

Sterol 117 is one of the most versatile supplements on the market, with seemingly limitless applications, but it is proving particularly helpful for the following:

You’re paying for potency: One of the main reasons Sterol 117 is so effective is because it contains 300mg of plant sterols including 117mg of beta sitosterol. Many other sterol formulas contain far less than this and completely miss the boat when it comes to results.
The sterols are derived from non-GMO soy, not wood pulp like many others. Wood pulp sterols are cheaper but have more toxic elements and hydrogenated fats.

1 capsule a day is all you need to recommend (very cost-effective indeed).

Enzogenol^TM, an antioxidant mixture containing the highest molecular weight proanthocyanidins in the industry, has been added for improved stability which leads to increased efficacy.

Quick acting due to the fact that it contains Cellasate^TM – a blend of fruit oils, seed extracts and essential fatty acids to increase sterol availability. 

Easy to digest, as it uses vegetarian, enteric capsules to ensure absorption in the small intestine.

Low-allergy Sterol 117 contains no wheat, gluten, corn, salt, sugar, starch, yeast, milk, dairy, nuts, eggs or shellfish.

Suitable for children aged 2 years and over.

No known drug interaction other than with immuno-suppressant medications.

Manufactured to the industry standard GMP/ISO9002 facility so you can rely on the quality and purity when you recommend it to patients and family.
