What it is

Sitostanol (Plant Stanol) is a plant stanol & lipid supplement. Sitostanol is the saturated (hydrogenated) plant stanol form, which blocks cholesterol absorption while being itself barely absorbed. Used in adult dosing protocols in India and internationally, it is sold as a single-ingredient supplement.

How it works

Like sterols, stanols displace cholesterol from intestinal micelles to lower LDL, but their saturated structure means even lower blood-stanol levels — a safety advantage. Effects are dose-dependent and typically measurable within 3-6 weeks.

Who should take it

Adults seeking potent cholesterol-absorption blocking with minimal sterol accumulation.

Avoid / careful

Take with meals. Slightly reduces carotenoid absorption. Generally regarded as very safe.
