Özet
Phytosterols are defined as plant sterols and plant stanols. Phytosterols lower total and LDL blood cholesterol by preventing cholesterol absorption from the intestine, so they have been known as blood cholesterol-lowering agents for over the last half century. Phytosterols are naturally found in vegetable products, principally oils. Dietary phytosterol intakes are normally range from 170 to 360 mg/day with variations depending on food culture and major food sources. Recent studies have shown that maximum cholesterol-lowering benefits are achieved at doses of 2-3 g per day. Therefore today's use implies the need for enriched functional food products, which give enough phytosterols intake.
