Product Info

About This Product

  • Promotes cardiovascular health
  • Provides cholesterol support
  • Suitable for everyday wellness seekers
  • Free of gluten, dairy, nuts, sugar, salt, and artificial colors or flavors

Otherwise known as phytosterols, Plant Sterols are naturally occurring compounds in the membranes of plant cells. Found in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, and legumes, plant sterols have a similar structure to cholesterol and can block your body's absorption of cholesterol to promote heart health.

If vegetable oils and nuts aren't your thing, supplementing with The Vitamin Shoppe® brand Heart Choice Plant Sterols is a great way to support healthy cholesterol levels.

Worth a try
I can tell they are effective but it isn't for everyone. I got blood work done and I started talking these to lower my cholesterol. 2g/day should lower LDL by 5-10% so I took this for 6 months and then I did followup blood work and I had an atypical response. My LDL cholesterol went up and my HDL cholesterol went down which is the opposite result intended. My platelets which were really elevated actually went down from these which is also not the normal response and can indicate a genetic…

Excellent for LDL
My LDL and cholesterol dropped significantly, to normal levels, after using these phytosterols for a couple months. I'm very grateful to have these in my daily regimen. I absolutely recommend it to others.

My hair was thinning badly. After taking this for three months I noticed my hair was getting thicker and not falling out. I continued to take it and it has helped me keep my hair and has grown back hair I had lost.

These work!
I first read about the benefits of plant sterols in a medical journal distributed to doctors at the hospital I work in. The article said that plant sterols/stenols naturally reduce LDL cholesterol and raise HDL counts. My husband and I took 2/day for three months and returned to our respective doctors for a new blood panel. Sure enough, there was DRAMATIC improvement in both of our cholesterol counts. Now, we've started adding fish oil as a supplement to our daily routine and look forward to…

Plant Sterols Work!!!
My cholesterol had been elevated 237 to be exact back at the end of October 2015. I got my labs done last week early part of February 2015 and the results shocked me I must say it went down to 208. I just reduced the use of cheese, butter and fried foods some. I also used KAL Red Yeast Rice/CoQ10/Fish Oil Supplement just for the first 30 days.
