𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗹𝘀, or 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘁𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗹𝘀, are natural compounds found in plants, vegetable oils, nuts, grain products, fruits, and vegetables. Food products containing plant sterols are derived from soybean and tall pine-tree oils, often combined with a small amount of canola oil.

The American Heart Association's (AHA) Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes diet recommends an intake of about 𝟮 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗱𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 as part of a regimen to 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗗𝗟 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗹.

⚠️𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 ≠ 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿! Excessive intake of plant sterols in the form of supplements may affect the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Always consult your healthcare professionals to ensure your intake is both effective and safe.

✅ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵: Many young adults who appear healthy and have no weight issues may already have 𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘀, a build-up of fat and cholesterol in their arteries. This “silent” condition can gradually narrow arteries over time and increase the risk of heart disease or stroke.

💡 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗮𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱. If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of heart disease, make it a priority to get your cholesterol checked.

Muscle loss and bone fragility increase with age. However, regular physical activity protects your body, boosts strength, promotes heart health, reduces the risk of chronic diseases, and keeps you steady on your feet.

Start with small, consistent steps:
✔️ Aerobic Exercises – brisk walking, dancing
✔️ Strength Training – sit-to-stand, seated shoulder presses using light weights
✔️ Balance Training – single-leg stands during TV breaks
✔️ Flexibility Training – hamstring and shoulder stretches

💡Reminder: Check with your healthcare provider before starting, especially if you have any health conditions.

💪 Build up slowly. Age with strength.
