STEROL 117 PLANT STEROLS WITH ANTIOXIDANTS AND ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS TO SUPPORT IMMUNE FUNCTION, BLOOD LIPID LEVELS, AND PROSTATE HEALTH

  • Assists in the management of seasonal allergy symptoms
  • Promotes a balanced immune system and T1/T2 helper cell ratio
  • Supports maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels
  • May support peak urinary flow and reduction of residual volume

Research by Karl Pagel from the University of Natal Republic of South Africa reports that a quality diet should provide 200-300 mg of plant sterols per day. However, analysis of the modern diet shows that this healthy and necessary amount of plant sterols is not being provided. In addition, our high fat diets tend to reduce the absorption of these beneficial plant constituents. Based on the far-reaching benefits of plant sterols, scientists have concluded that supplementation is necessary to achieve the recommended daily intake.

ENTERIC-COATED capsules protect sterols from being easily destroyed by harsh stomach acids. Sterol 117 capsules are enteric coated to allow the capsules to pass safely and directly into the small intestine. Inaddition to the plant sterols (phytosterols), Sterol 117 has some additionalingredients which enhance the overall benefit of the product:

ENZOGENOL™ is the antioxidant component of Sterol117. It is in the highest tier of antioxidants available and contains thehighest molecular weight of oligomeric proanthocyanidin complexes (OPC) in theindustry. This ingredient reduces free radical damage and is extracted withoutthe use of chemical solvents.

CELLASTATE™ is a proprietary blend of proteins, aminoacids, and essential fatty acids (EFA) from flax seeds, together with shortchain peptides and proline rich polypeptides. This unique blend increases thebioavailability of the phytosterols and antioxidants. Cellastate™ alsofunctions as a beneficial immune modulator.

SEASONAL ALLERGIES: Phytosterols have been shown tosuppress the release of

interleukin 4 (IL-4), resulting in decreased histamine release for morecontrolled

allergy symptoms. In addition, interleukin 6 (IL-6) appears to benormalized,

acting to protect lung tissue from further dysfunction.

FIBROMYALGIA/MUSCLE PAIN AND FATIGUE DISORDERS: Theproduction of IL-6, which causes inflammation and pain, may be inhibited withthe use of phytosterols. Research shows that Enzogenol also reduces the freeradicals that can contribute to the development of muscle pain and fatiguedisorders.

IMMUNE SYSTEM: Phytosterols have been shown to havemodulating activity on an overproducing and over-performing immune system. Thisbalancing effect may enhance the ability of the T-lymphocytes to release thefactors that ultimately regulate cellular functions in the body. Studies haveshown the potential to increase T cell proliferation an average of 58%.Increases in CD-4 lymphocyte counts have also been reported by somepatients.

PROSTATE: Urologists in Germany have been usingphytosterols for over 20 years in the treatment of enlarged prostateconditions. In a recent United Kingdom study of over 100 participants, 90%showed an average improvement in their prostate scores of 44% over atwelve-week period.

CHOLESTEROL: Changes in diet and exercise are important inlowering high cholesterol. However, consumption of Sterol 117 fifteen minutesprior to a meal may help block the intestinal dietary absorption ofcholesterol. It may also encourage an increase in HDL levels.

  1. Sterol 117 Review by Kenda Skaggs

    I began taking Sterol 117 at Dr. Ben's recommendation because my spring allergies have been terrible this year plus I developed asthma symptoms. Not wanting to take drugs because they either wire or tire me, I wanted a natural solution but thus far, none have helped. I began taking two Sterol 117's a day and within a couple of days all of my symptoms were completely gone, including the asthma symptoms. Sterol 117 has been nothing short of a miracle for me!

  • chronic health problems at 4/17/12 1:50 AM
    • I have Hashimotos and am taking a high dose of bioidentical T3 w/ some T4. My esonophils are high, and my allergies year round to pollen, animals, dust, mold,etc, including latex anaphylactic. Over the past 8 yrs asthma has developed and progessively gotten worse, and I take oral & inhalent steroids, albuterol, allegra, sinus rinses,D3, b-complex,Ca/Mg/Zn, fish oils,probiotics. Chronic sinus infection and had lazer sinus surgery 2 yrs ago, but infection continues,which some docs think trigger the asthma(PND). Excess steroid use for past 6 wks caused 10lb weight gain. Son diagnosed with autism at age 4, also with allergies and the c677 single mutation. I started taking NAC recently. Any suggestions?
    • Hello - 

      Your immune system is overactive - as you know. Addressing this nutritionally and through diet and lifestyle is needed.

      I am more comfortable making recommendations in this situation after we discuss for 30 minutes or so via a phone consult.

      Please consider scheduling a 30 minute phone consult. We can address many things during the call and the information you receive will be very helpful - and will also help me make better recommendations for you.

      For the time being:

      • eliminate wheat and dairy from your diet
      • consider taking 1/2 tablet of Active B12 5000 upon waking to help reduce eosinophils
      • consider placing 1 to 2 scoops of Optimal Vitamin C Powder in a liter water bottle and drinking throughout the day. Vitamin C helps stabilize mast cells.
      • consider using the Ceramic Neti Pot to wash out your sinuses daily

      I look forward to potentially working with you and your son so you have more tools on hand to improve health.

      In health,

      Dr Ben

  • Sterol 117 and soy intolerance at 1/11/12 1:10 AM
    • I have Hashimoto’s and I am gluten, casein, and soy free. I am taking Sterol 117, but it is derived from non-GMO soy. I can see some benefits from Sterol 117 after 10 days, but I am still wondering will it have some negative impact on my health because my soy intolerance? What is soy-free replacement for Sterol 117?
    • Hello - If you are seeing benefits from Sterol 117, I would stay on it. It is very effective and the soy intolerance you may have is insignificant to the potent effects that Sterol 117 has on the immune system. I know of no other alternative as it is very unique. In addition to Sterol 117, you should be taking the following to further support healthy activity of your immune system: - ProBiota 12 Powder: consider taking 1/4 teaspoon after dinner for 1 week and then increase to 1/2 teaspoon for a month. After 1 month, reduce back down to 1/4 teaspoon for a month. After that, reduce down to 1/8 teaspoon and stay on that amount: http://www.healthegoods.com/pro-biota-12-powder-maximum-support-200-billion-cfus-twelve-species-60-grams-seeking-health.html - ProBiota Immune: mix 1 scoop in a small amount of strong tasting juice (cranberry, pineapple, etc) and down it quickly. Do in the morning and evening with or without food. http://www.healthegoods.com/probiota-immune-150-grams.html - Vitamin D3 is critical. Consider taking 3 drops of Vitamin D360 a day which provides 6,000 IU a day. Then get your vitamin d3 levels checked in 3 months by your doctor: http://www.healthegoods.com/vitamin-d360-by-seeking-health.html - Optimal Fish Oil: consider taking 2 capsules with breakfast and two capsules after dinner. http://www.healthegoods.com/optimal-fish-oil-60-softgels.html - Optimal Vitamin C Powder: consider mixing 1 scoop in a one liter water bottle with filtered water and drinking throughout the day. The taste is excellent and the benefits of vitamin C are well known. Staying hydrated is also critical. http://www.healthegoods.com/optimal-vitamin-c-powder.html Avoid all gluten containing foods - and ideally dairy. Keep me posted how you do. My wife had Hashimoto's - and now not ;) Best Dr Ben
