Plant Sterols Plus

What is Plant Sterols Plus?

A powerful solution for cholesterol reduction and healthy blood pressure. Plant Sterols Plus contains 2400 mg plant sterols, proven to lower cholesterol, plus Oli-Ola™ olive extract, potassium and vitamins B1 & B3 to maintain normal blood pressure and overall heart health.

Did you know cholesterol and blood pressure are closely linked? High cholesterol can lead to excess cholesterol building in the arteries, narrowing them and increasing resistance to blood flow. This can cause blood pressure to rise. Over time, blood pressure can damage arteries in its own ways, making tears in artery walls where excess cholesterol can collect.

Plant Sterols blocks the absorption in dietary cholesterol. ‘Plant’ because they are often found in fruit, vegetables and grains, and ‘sterols’ because they are similar in structure to the cholesterol found in our own bodies. By mimicking the structure of cholesterol, plant sterols compete with its absorption in the intestine, reducing the amount of bad cholesterol or LDL (low-density lipoprotein) entering your bloodstream.

Oli-Ola™ the power of olives

Sourced from ancient olive trees in the Mediterranean, Oli-Ola™ is a natural olive extract, grown wild to allow the highest content of polyphenols. It's these polyphenols, include hydroxytyrosol, which are linked to ‘blue zones’, parts of the world where long and healthy lifespans are noted.

Why choose Healthspan?

There are many plant sterols supplements available, but none that also take complementary steps to address blood pressure maintenance. By adding Oli-Ola™ olive extract and potassium for cardiovascular support, plus additional B vitamins for good cardiac function, Plant Sterols Plus is the ultimate solution for healthy blood pressure and cholesterol reduction.

By taking Plant Sterols Plus, you can get your recommended daily intake without the added calories of fat found in sterol-enriched margarine of dairy produce. What’s more, they represent a natural way to manage your cholesterol and blood pressure with no side effects.
