Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized TrialAn improvement in the lipid profile, particularly a reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), is desirable owing to the causal relationship between increased LDL-C and the risk of ASCVD.2Johnen Jana (2026)Effects of regular consumption of a β-glucan-rich oyster mushroom powder on cholesterol metabolism in adults with moderately elevated LDL-cholesterol concentrations: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized TrialThis effect has been attributed to the increased viscosity of the chyme, formation of a gel on the intestinal mucosal surface, and binding of bile acids, which consequently lowers the re-/absorption of cholesterol and bile acids.2Johnen Jana (2026)Effects of regular consumption of a β-glucan-rich oyster mushroom powder on cholesterol metabolism in adults with moderately elevated LDL-cholesterol concentrations: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized TrialHowever, owing to methodological limitations (e.g., the lack of randomization and blinding) and high risk of bias, evidence supporting the beneficial effects of PO intake on the lipid profile remains weak [].2Johnen Jana (2026)Effects of regular consumption of a β-glucan-rich oyster mushroom powder on cholesterol metabolism in adults with moderately elevated LDL-cholesterol concentrations: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized Trial1 Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) remain the leading causes of death worldwide.2Johnen Jana (2026)Effects of regular consumption of a β-glucan-rich oyster mushroom powder on cholesterol metabolism in adults with moderately elevated LDL-cholesterol concentrations: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized TrialPhytosterols, a form of naturally occurring substance structurally related to cholesterol, have been getting considerable interest due to their possible anticancer property.2Shahbaz M (2026)Anticancer Molecular Mechanisms of Phytosterols: An Updated Review on Clinical Trials.
Beta-Sitosterol Cholesterol Randomized TrialThey have multifactorial modes of action such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and apoptotic, which render them useful in the prevention and treatment of prostate, breast, colon, bladder, and skin cancer.2Shahbaz M (2026)Anticancer Molecular Mechanisms of Phytosterols: An Updated Review on Clinical Trials.
