Description

CardioAid-S plant sterol esters are derived by esterifying plant sterols with canola oil fatty acids. Structurally similar to cholesterol, plant sterols have been found, in studies, to reduce the absorption of dietary cholesterol, which can impact serum cholesterol levels [Mayo Clin Proc 78:965-78 (2003); AJCN 74:33-43 (2001)]. The FDA has permitted the following claim for products containing plant sterol esters like CardioAid-S: Foods containing at least 0.65 gram per serving of plant sterol esters, eaten twice a day with meals for a daily total intake of at least 1.3 gram, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. A serving of [name of the food] supplies ____ gram(s) of plant sterol esters.
