FabU Cholesterol & Heart 90 Tablets | Plant Sterols & Shiitake Supplement

FabU Cholesterol & Heart — Plant Sterols, Shiitake & B Vitamins

FabU Cholesterol & Heart is a daily food supplement formulated to help maintain normal blood cholesterol and support heart health, combining a full daily dose of plant sterols with Shiitake mushroom and B vitamins. Plant sterols are one of the best-evidenced natural ingredients for cholesterol support, with an EFSA-authorised health claim behind them.

What's Inside — The Ingredients Explained

Each serving (3 tablets) delivers four active ingredients:

• Plant sterols 1500mg — the hero ingredient. Plant sterols have been shown to help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels; the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 1.5–3.0g. Three tablets provide a full 1.5g dose. (Sourced from soy.)
• Shiitake mushroom extract (Lentinula edodes) 150mg — a functional, edible mushroom native to East Asia, rich in beta-glucans and antioxidants.
• Vitamin B1 / Thiamine 2.1mg — contributes to the normal function of the heart and to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
• Vitamin B2 / Riboflavin 1.4mg — contributes to the maintenance of normal red blood cells, the normal metabolism of iron, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

The cholesterol-support claim here rests on solid ground: plant sterols work by reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the gut, and their effect at 1.5–3g/day is well established and EFSA-authorised. The B vitamins add heart-function and energy support, and Shiitake contributes antioxidant compounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does FabU Cholesterol & Heart work?

The plant sterols work by reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine, which can help lower blood LDL ("bad") cholesterol. Plant sterols have an EFSA-authorised claim for helping maintain normal blood cholesterol at a daily intake of 1.5–3g — three tablets provide a full 1.5g. Vitamin B1 also contributes to the normal function of the heart. This is a food supplement, not a medicine, and should be taken as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Can I take it alongside cholesterol-lowering medication (statins)?

Plant sterols and statins work in different ways, so they are often used together — but you should always inform your doctor before starting any cholesterol supplement if you are on medication. If you take ezetimibe (Ezetrol), discuss with your doctor whether there is additional benefit, as these can work similarly. This product is not a replacement for prescribed cholesterol medication. Our Chemco pharmacists are happy to talk this through with you.

What are the ingredients?

Each 3-tablet serving provides plant sterols 1500mg, Shiitake mushroom extract 150mg, Vitamin B1 (thiamine) 2.1mg and Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) 1.4mg. The plant sterols are sourced from soy. Please always read the label before use.

How long does it take to work?

Plant sterols can help reduce cholesterol when taken consistently as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle. As with all supplements, results vary between individuals — give it a fair trial of around three months and monitor your cholesterol with your GP. We recommend keeping up any lifestyle measures (diet, fibre, exercise) alongside it.
