[What is Phytosterol?]

Phytosterols are compounds found in plants that resemble cholesterol. The National Institutes of Heath report that there are over 200 different phytosterols, and the highest concentrations of phytosterols are found naturally in vegetable oils, beans and nuts. Their benefits are so recognized that foods are being fortified with phytosterols. At the supermarket, you may see orange juice or margarine advertising phytosterol contents. After reviewing the health benefits, you may want to add phytosterol-rich foods to your diet.

[Benefits]

Cholesterol-Lowering Benefits

The most well-known, and scientifically proven, benefit of phytosterols is their ability to help lower cholesterol. A phytosterol is a plant compound that is similar to cholesterol. A study in the 2002 issue of “Annual Review of Nutrition” explains that phytosterols actually compete for absorption with cholesterol in the digestive tract. While they prevent the absorption of regular dietary cholesterol, they themselves are not easily absorbed, which leads to a total lower cholesterol level. The cholesterol-lowering benefit does not end with a good number on your blood work report. Having lower cholesterol leads to other benefits, such as a reduced risk for heart disease, stroke and heart attacks.

Cancer Protection Benefits

Phytosterols have also been found to help protect against the development of cancer. The July 2009 issue of the” European Journal of Clinical Nutrition” offers encouraging news in the fight against cancer. Researchers at the University of Manitoba in Canada report that there is evidence that phytosterols help prevent ovarian, breast, stomach and lung cancer. Phytosterols do this by preventing the production of cancer cells, stopping the growth and spread of cells that are already in existence and actually encouraging the death of cancer cells. Their high anti-oxidant levels are believed to be one way phytosterols help fight cancer. An anti-oxidant is a compound that fights free radical damage, which is negative effects on the body produced by cells that are unhealthy.

Skin Protection Benefits

A lesser known benefit of phytosterols involves skin care. One of the contributing factors in the aging of the skin is the breakdown and loss of collagen — the main component in connective skin tissue — and sun exposure is a major contributor to the problem. As the body ages, it is not able to produce collagen as it once did. The German medical journal “Der Hautarzt” reports a study in which various topical preparations were tested on skin for 10 days. The topical treatment that showed anti-aging benefits to the skin was the one that contained phytosterols and other natural fats. It is reported that phytosterols not only stopped the slow-down of collagen production that can be caused by the sun, it actually encouraged new collagen production.

(RECIPES LISTED BELOW)

PUMPKIN PIE BLISS BALL: makes apprx. 18

- 1/4 cup pureed pumpkin
- 1/2 cup medjool dates, pitted
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. chia seeds
- 1 tsp. cinnamon (add more if you like!)
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds

Combine all ingredients EXCEPT oats, pumpkin seeds and coconut in a food processor and combine until smooth. Transfer to a separate bowl and add coconut, pumpkin seeds and oats. Mix and then chill the dough for at least 30 min. Once chilled, roll into balls and refrigerate in a sealed container.

COCONUT LIME BLISS BALL: makes apprx. 18

- 1 1/2 cups medjool dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 1/2 cup almonds
- zest from 1 lime
- juice from 2 small-ish limes
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut (for coating)

Combine dates, nuts, juice and zest in the food processor and blend until mixture starts to clump. Make sure it doesn’t get too smooth or else you’ll have a nut butter. Transfer mixture to a bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes. Then lay out the shredded coconut on a tray and begin rolling the dough into balls and then coating them in the coconut. Refrigerate in a sealed container.

RAW CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES: makes 15-20

TRUFFLES:
- 1 cup medjool dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup raw almonds
- 1 tbsp. coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3/8 cup coconut flour (yes, flour)
- 1.5 tbsp. raw cacao powder
- pinch of sea salt

CHOCOLATE COATING:
- 4oz. (about 113g) dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 tbsp. coconut oil
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut

Combine dates and boiling water and let sit for 30 minutes to soften. Then process the dates along with the almonds, coconut flour, oil, vanilla, sea salt and cacao powder. You want to make this as smooth as possible. Make sure to scrap down the sides to ensure everything gets blended. Once smooth and blended, transfer to a bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes. THE LONGER THE BETTER. You want the mixture very cold for the coating. Once chilled, put the dark chocolate in a bowl along with the boiling water and coconut oil and mix until combined. Lay out the shredded coconut on a plate or tray and then using a fork dip the balls in the chocolate sauce and then roll in the coconut. Once finished transfer to a plate and refrigerate until serving. The longer in the fridge the better with these ones!

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER: makes apprx. 15

- 1 cup medjool dates, pitted
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 peanut butter (I like half pb and half sunflower seed butter too!)
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp. water (if your food processor is struggling)

Combine all ingredients in the food processor and blend until a thick ball-like dough forms. It should be sticky and all in one piece. Add water if you find the dough is not blending properly. But not too much, you will regret it. Then, transfer the dough to a bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes. After that, roll into balls and refrigerate in a sealed container.
