Study Summary

Phytosterols and ezetimibe each reduce intestinal cholesterol absorption by 30-55% but appear to have different mechanisms of action. The investigators' hypothesis is that phytosterols and ezetimibe given together will block cholesterol absorption in an additive fashion. In a randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial the effects of placebo, ezetimibe treatment and ezetimibe plus phytosterol treatment will be measured.

Primary Outcome

Milligrams of fecal cholesterol and cholesterol metabolites excreted per day

Interventions

  • OTHER Placebo
  • DRUG Ezetimibe
  • OTHER Phytosterols + ezetimibe
