Can sterols interfere with fasting cholesterol blood test? i take plant sterols supplements,1000mg at breakfast and 1000mg capsule at evening dinner.the day before cholesterol blood test should i take breakfast capsule but leave evening as fasting?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Plant sterols can interfere with cholesterol assay depending on the method used for the test. What do you think you are getting by taking plant sterols, other than getting a lighter wallet?
