and hence in plant-derived food poducts, is found in the serum and tissues of healthy humans in concentrations 8001000 times less than the endogenous cholesterol. The glucoside of sitosterol (sitosterolin) is present in mammalian serum at even lower concentrations. In many animals, sitosterol and sitosterolin concentrations relative to cholesterol are considerably higher than in humans. Only plants can synthesise these compounds and humans and animals obtain them from their diet. Even though their absorption efficiency is low (-1/10 and -1/50 for sitosterol and sitosterolin, respectively, relative to cholesterol), their apparent synergystic stimulatory effect on the immune system and prophylactic effect on a variety of diseases of civilisation indicates their importance in human and animal nutrition. Since modern food processing tends to reduce their concentration in processed plant-food products, and eating habits also affect their consumption adversely, it is desirable to eat sufficient unrefined or unprocessed plant foods or resort to food supplements containing sitosterol and sitosterolin.
