[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.

Prep:20m
Cook:25m
Total:45m
Serves:4
Temp:210° c – 410° f

Ingredients:

350 g cooked pasta, eg rigatoni
50 g plain flour
1 tsp mustard powder
50 g unsalted butter
600 ml cold milk
150 g mature cheddar, grated
1 head of broccoli
1 crust of wholemeal bread, for bread crumbs
pepper

Step 1: Cook Your Pasta

Preheat your oven to 210° c. Place your pasta into a pan of salted boiling water and leave to cook for about 10 minutes, or according to instructions on the packet.

Step 2: Make Your Sauce

Place a saucepan on a medium to high heat and pour in the flour. Next add the mustard powder, the unsalted butter and the milk. Make sure the milk is cold to help prevent any lumps forming in your sauce. Whisk the sauce continuously until it comes to the boil and starts to thicken.

Step 3: Add The Cheese And Broccoli

Once your white sauce is thick and smooth remove the pan from the heat and season with pepper. Pour most of the grated cheese into the sauce, making sure to keep about 20 g back to use as a topping. Whisk the cheese into the sauce until it has all melted. Take your broccoli and using kitchen scissors snip off the tips, then stir them into the sauce.

Step 4: Bake Your Pasta Dish

Drain your cooked pasta and pour it into the sauce. Stir through to make sure the pasta is covered in the sauce, then pour mixture into a oven proof dish and level out the pasta. Sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese and breadcrumbs made from a slice of crusty bread. Place the pasta dish into the oven for 10-15 minutes until the toppings have turned golden brown and crispy. Serve with a green salad.
