TL;DR: In this article, the authors concluded that properly solubilized 4-desmetyl plant sterols, in ester or free form, in reasonable doses (0.8-1.0 g of equivalents per day) and in various vehicles including natural sources, are important dietary components for lowering low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and maintaining good heart health.
