Measure
Phytosterols
1. Milk powder: subjects will consume 22 g/day of the product, with 0.65 g of esterified phytosterols (0.39 g of free equivalent sterols). The product will be reconstituted with 200 ml of water at time of consumption. 2. Drinking yoghurt: the daily volume consumed will be 90 ml/day with 1.3 grs of esterified phytosterols (0.78 g of free equivalent phytosterols). Day 1: Anthropometry, laboratory test, dietary intake (24 hour recall and food frequency questionnaire), presence of symptoms and side effects will be determined. Then will be randomly assigned to one of the groups. Days 7 \& 21: 24 hour recall, review of symptoms, side effects and adherence as registered in the logbook. Days 15 \& 30: Anthropometry, vital signs, venous blood sample, review of symptoms, side effects and adherence to intervention as registered on logbook, dietary intake (24-hour recall), delivery of monetary compensation proportional to the study days will be given before being discharged.
Placebo
1. Milk powder: subjects will be instructed to consume 22 g/day of the product, without phytosterols. The product will be reconstituted with 200 ml of water at time of consumption. 2. Drinking yoghurt: the daily volume consumed will be 90 ml/day without phytosterols. Day 1: Anthropometry, laboratory test, dietary intake (24 hour recall and food frequency questionnaire) and presence of symptoms and side effects will be determined, a logbook will be provided to record product consumption, symptoms, medications and side effects. Then will be randomly assigned to one of the groups. Days 7 \& 21: 24 hour recall, review of symptoms, side effects and adherence as registered in the logbook. Days 15 \& 30: Anthropometry, vital signs, venous blood sample, review of symptoms, side effects and adherence to intervention as registered on logbook, dietary intake (24-hour recall), delivery of monetary compensation proportional to the study days will be given before being discharged.
