Phytosterol Powder
90% & 95%
Description
WRI’s Phytosterol Powders are derived from soybean oil and are
available in concentrations of either 90% or 95% total phytosterol.
In both cases, the mixture of phytosterols contains 80% or more of
beta sitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol which meets the
FDA’s composition requirement. To make the FDA allowed CHD health
claim, the daily dietary intake of phytosterol must be 800 mg or
more per day. Thus, 889 mg of the 90% or 842 mg of the 95% WRI
Phytosterol powder is required per daily serving.
