::::::I'm not sure if you read the Genser et al. meta-analysis but it doesn't look at phytosterol supplementation at all, in fact it was looking at if there is an association between elevated phytosterol levels (not due to supplementation but due to diet or genetics, etc) and cardiovascular disease, so claiming that this meta-analysis made any assertion about the effectiveness of phytosterol supplementation in the prevention of cardiovascular disease would be incorrect. I have to also agree with Dankarl about the tone of the recent edits.
