Talk to your doctor before starting a beta sitosterol regimen. Beta sitosterol products are designated as dietary supplements and not as drugs, but they are typically marketed with claims that they may help reduce cholesterol levels, shrink enlarged prostates and promote overall better prostate health. They should not be considered a replacement for approved drugs for these conditions, but with your doctor's consent, they may be an appropriate part of fighting high cholesterol and prostate problems.
