Plant sterols and plant sterol esters are compounds whose chemical structures are very similar to cholesterol. These beneficial “fat-like” substances are naturally present in small quantities in everyday foods such vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, cereals, legumes, vegetable oils and other plant sources. Increasing your daily consumption of plant sterols can help you actively manage your cholesterol and thus may help you to reduce the risk for heart disease.  more
