<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Phytosterols

Cholesterol or LDL

Sterol and stanol esters, also go by the name<u> phytosterols</u> and help lower <u>blood cholesterol level or LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol)</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Phytosterols also known as plant sterol and stanol esters are naturally occuring compounds found in plant cell membranes. </u>
  • <em><u>When consumed, phytosterols, compete with cholesterol for absorption in the digestive system since they are structurally similar to cholesterol. This will result in the blocking of cholesterol absorption thus reducing the amount of cholesterol in blood.</u></em>
  • Phytosterols have been found to lower total cholesterol and LDL or bad cholesterol in the blood. They are so effective and it is recommended for people with high cholesterol to consume 2 grams of phytosterols per day.

Why does the story of spontaneous generation illustrate the limitation of science?
VLD [36.1K]

The story of spontaneous generation illustrates that science is capable of doing exactly what it is supposed to do: observe nature and eliminate theories that contradict observations.
