Plant sterols, also known as phytosterols, are naturally occurring compounds found in plants that resemble cholesterol in structure and function. These compounds are extracted from vegetable oils, including soybeans, canola, sunflowers, corn oil, and tall oil (a by-product of pulp production).
When esterified with fatty acids, they form plant sterol esters, which have a composition of approximately 60% plant sterols and 40% fatty acid tail. These compounds are widely recognized for their health benefits, particularly in lowering blood cholesterol levels, and have been linked to cancer prevention, making them beneficial for patients undergoing treatment.
