How It Works

Cholesterol maintenance is an important part of many people’s
diet and lifestyle regimes. Blackmores Cholesterol HealthTM
contains plant sterols which help to reduce cholesterol absorption.
It also contains betacarotene, as betacarotene absorption may be
reduced when taking plant sterols.

Plant sterols are fat-like compounds with a chemical structure
that is very similar to cholesterol. However compared to
cholesterol, plant sterols are only minimally absorbed. They are
naturally present in everyday foods especially in vegetables, fruit,
nuts, grains and cooking oils.

During digestion, the plant sterols compete with cholesterol for
absorption. What this means is that less cholesterol is absorbed
and more cholesterol is excreted.

A daily dose of 2-3 grams of plant sterols from plant sterol-
enriched food is recommended by the National Heart Foundation
of Australia to help maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Blackmores
Cholesterol HealthTM provides a daily dose of 2 grams of plant
sterols. It helps in maintaining the LDL:HDL cholesterol ratio
within the normal range.

Blackmores Cholesterol HealthTM; is for people concerned about
their cholesterol levels and is a useful proactive aid in conjunction
with diet and lifestyle changes.
